Circumstances surrounding the death of U.S. Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick aren’t clear and should not be politicized, family members said.

“Many details regarding Wednesday’s events and the direct causes of Brian’s injuries remain unknown, and our family asks the public and the press to respect our wishes in not making Brian’s passing a political issue,” Ken Sicknick, the man’s brother, said in a statement. “Please honor Brian’s life and service, and respect our privacy while we move forward in doing the same.”
