Two Rocky Mount Officers on Leave After Storming U.S. Capitol, Federal Authorities Notified
ROCKY MOUNT – Two Rocky Mount Police officers are on administrative leave after allegedly attending a rally-turned-riot at the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday. Five people were killed in the riot.
It is unclear what part the officers played in the events last Wednesday. A news release stated federal authorities have been contacted.
In a statement, the RMPD says the two officers, who were off duty at the time, are being placed on administrative leave while the matter is reviewed.
Facebook screenshots of posts made by one of the officers began circulating over the weekend. In one picture, both of the Rocky Mount officers are seen posing apparently inside the Capitol, with one officer raising his middle finger.
