A Washington, D.C., police officer has reportedly confirmed reports that former President Donald Trump got into a physical altercation with Secret Service agents on Jan. 6 as he sought to go to the Capitol to lead the violent insurrection by his supporters.
The officer who was in the Trump motorcade has given his own account to the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack, CNN reported.
The police account broadly corroborates the story told by White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, who testified under oath that fellow aides told her Trump angrily demanded to be taken to the Capitol and got physical with Secret Service agents when they refused his request.
