The U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) has issued an update on Rep. Jamaal Bowman’s (D-N.Y.) recent fire alarm incident, saying that it is still investigating the facts and circumstances surrounding the activation of a fire alarm that resulted in the evacuation of the Cannon House Office Building.
On Sept. 30 ahead of a House vote on a government funding bill, Mr. Bowman pulled the fire alarm on a door at the Cannon House Office while his fellow Democrats were attempting to postpone the vote during the House proceedings. The matter was taken up for an investigation the same day.
