“#Six Capitol Police officers suspended for actions during riot<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

Thirty-five Capitol Police officers are under investigation \u2014 including six who have been suspended with pay \u2014 for their actions in the deadly January siege, according to the department. <\/p>\n

Acting Chief Yogananda Pittman has indicated that any officer whose actions were found to be unacceptable on Jan. 6 will be disciplined, a department spokesman said in a statement to WTTG<\/a> on Thursday. <\/p>\n

\u201cOur Office of Professional Responsibility is investigating the actions of 35 police officers from that day. We currently have suspended six of those officers with pay,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

Some Capitol Police officers were caught on video watching the rioters enter Capitol Hill without taking any action. <\/p>\n

In one video posted to YouTube<\/a>, Capitol Police Lt. Tarik Khalid Johnson can be seen wearing a red \u201cMake America Great Again\u201d hat while talking to several supporters of former President Trump. <\/p>\n

Johnson \u2014 who has since been suspended from the department \u2014 donned the cap in order to gain the protestors\u2019 trust so they could get him through the crowd and into the building so he could save his fellow officers, the Wall Street Journal reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At one point in the video<\/a>, Johnson, 45, gives his megaphone to one of the protestors and says, \u201cI\u2019ll follow you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Justice Department has charged more than 250 people for storming the Capitol during a vicious attack that left five dead, including veteran Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick. <\/p>\n

As a result, Trump was impeached a second time for inciting the insurrection at the Capitol, but the Senate failed to convict him.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
