But we are getting word that maybe the lockdown at the capitol is over. While thats happening, kelly e evens whos with me today here at the new york stock exchange, we are watching all the Security Forces in place and just trying to figure out exactly what happened and now what will happen from here.

C. , by the various authorities has to be this way until they are 100 convinced that the threat is removed. So nobodys going to give anybody a hard time for sending out all the different resources of the d. C. Police and the federal government and the park police there. Because this is the u. S. Capitol.
