Remaining metal fencing around Capitol comes down 6 months after riot, US, US - 10 Jul 2021
Authorities Friday began removing the last section of the metal fence around the US Capitol building, six months after a riot that left five dead and put the country's democracy to the test. Amid anticipations and in front of several cameras, a member of the Capitol Police took down a white sign that read "Closed Area" written in red letters from one of the fences and added in black lettering that it was a decision of the Capitol Police board. Despite the gesture, the fence remained in place for hours while people waited for it to be dismantled. SHOT LIST: WORKERS REMOVE METAL FENCE AROUND THE CAPITOL BUILDING IN WASHINGTON DC, US.
