Biden says those responsible for Capitol officer's death will be held accountable

In remarks in Wilmington, Del., Biden offered his condolences to the family of Officer Brian Sicknick, who died on Thursday night from injuries sustained while engaging with pro-Trump rioters at the Capitol in Washington on Wednesday.
“Let me begin by expressing my deep sympathy for the family of Capitol Officer Sicknick, who has died in the line of duty,” Biden said as he prepared to announce members of his economics team.

“The people responsible should be held accountable — and they will be,” the president-elect added.
Sicknick’s death brought the number of fatalities from the chaos that unfolded on Wednesday to five. One participant in the rampage, which was intended to disrupt Congress’s certification of Biden’s Electoral College victory, was fatally shot by a Capitol Police officer as she climbed through a broken window.
