Noah Green, identified as suspect who drove car into Capitol barrier and attacked police with a knife. Green is said to be a follower of Islam and Louis Farrakhan.
The 25-year-old man fatally shot by police Friday after
ramming his car into two officers outside the US Capitol posted online in the
weeks ahead of the attack about “terrible afflictions” he blamed on “government
agencies of the United States of America.”
Noah Green, whose actions resulted in the death of
Capitol Police officer William Evans, was a 2019 graduate of Christopher
Newport University in Newport News, Virginia.
In a series of posts on Facebook and Instagram, he wrote
of various personal setbacks and described Nation of Islam leader Louis
Farrakhan as “Jesus, the Messiah.”
Green credited Farrakhan with having saved him “after the
terrible afflictions I have suffered presumably by the CIA and FBI, government
agencies of the United States of America.”
“I have suffered multiple home break ins, food
poisonings, assaults, unauthorized operations in the hospital, mind control,”
he wrote.
Authorities disclosed the name of the attacker shortly
after identifying the officer killed in the incident.
“It is with profound sadness that I share the news of the
passing of Officer William ‘Billy’ Evans this afternoon from injuries he
sustained following an attack at the North Barricade by a lone assailant.
Officer Evans had been a member of the United States Capitol Police for 18
years,” the USCP’s acting chief, Yogananda Pittman, said.
The USCP said that the other officer struck by Green’s
car was in in “stable and non-threatening condition.”
“Jill and I were heartbroken to learn of the violent
attack at a security checkpoint on the US Capitol grounds,” President Joe Biden
said in a statement on behalf of himself and the first lady. “We send our
heartfelt condolences to Officer Evans’ family, and everyone grieving his
loss.”
The incident began shortly after 1:00 pm.
“The suspect entered what we refer to as the north
barricade of the Capitol. The suspect rammed his car into two of our officers
and then hit the north barricade barrier,” Pittman told reporters.
“The suspect exited the vehicle with a knife in hand. Our
officers then engaged that suspect. He did not respond to verbal commands. The
suspect did start lunging toward US Capitol Police officers, at which time US
Capitol Police officers fired upon the suspect. At this time the suspect has
been pronounced deceased,” she said.
The two injured officers were taken to hospitals and one
of them “succumbed to his injuries,” Pittman said.
Congress is in recess for Easter, but some lawmakers and
staff were working inside the Capitol, which was locked down for several hours
to deal with the “external security threat.”
Robert Contee, acting chief of the Washington Metropolitan
Police Department, said the attack did “not appear to be terrorism related” and
he discounted any “ongoing threat.”
Members of the National Guard’s Immediate Response Unit,
formed in the wake of the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol by supporters of now-former
President Donald Trump, were deployed within minutes of the initial alert.
Five people died in the riot, including Capitol Police
officer Brian Sicknick.
“This has been an extremely difficult time for US Capitol
police after the events of Jan. 6, and now the events that have occurred here
today,” Pittman said during the news conference. “So I ask that you keep our US
Capitol police family in your thoughts and prayers.”
