Jim Saxton Thought Cynthia McKinney Was at it Again - Report of Gunshots in Capitol Parking Garage Probably Were Coming from an Air Hammer

@ 10:54 PM (25 months, 21 days ago)

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A House office building reopened Friday afternoon after investigators determined a report of gunshots in a parking garage probably came from worker using an air hammer, according to sources.

The Rayburn House Office Building was locked down Friday morning after a congressman reported what he thought were gunshots in the building's garage, prompting armed police to conduct a room-by-room search of the complex.

It was unclear whether the report by Republican Rep. Jim Saxton of New Jersey, as related by his spokesman, was the only one Capitol Police received.

High-ranking law enforcement sources at the Capitol told law enforcement expert Mike Brooks the noises apparently were made by a mechanic using a pneumatic hammer on an elevator.
