A U.S. Capitol Police Officer has been suspended after firing a gun inside a House break room on Tuesday, prompting an investigation from the agency.

The gun was discharged around 8:30 a.m. Tuesday in the Cannon Office Building, and no injuries have been reported, according to officials. It’s not entirely clear whether the firing was an accident or intentional, and the USCP told the Washington Examiner that the officer would remain suspended while the incident is investigated.

The incident comes as the agency struggles to regain trust after a year and a half of miscommunications that have led to overwhelmed officers and a wary public. Most recently, Capitol Police evacuated the Capitol in a frenzy due to an unknown aircraft flying in restricted airspace.

It was later discovered the plane was part of a parachute stunt at a nearby Washington Nationals baseball game, and the Federal Aviation Administration failed to warn the USCP — marking a major communications breakdown that some, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, called reminiscent of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

The Capitol Police previously acknowledged it did not act on warnings that far-right groups would rally at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, to protest the results of the 2020 election, resulting in an unprepared response as rioters surged past police barriers and officers were injured amid the chaos. The agency has remained short-staffed a year later, with USCP Chief Tom Manger calling it "the biggest problem that we face today" in January.
