February 2
editU.S. Capitol Police division office
editDoes the U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) have a division office in the U.S. Capitol? The USCP headquarters is located elsewhere in D.C.
The question pertains to the following excerpt from Death of Brian Sicknick.
- Sicknick later collapsed around 10 p.m. at the Capitol[a]

- The Capitol Police has a number of divisions, listed here, including one called the "Capitol Division" which presumably provides uniformed services to the Capitol Building itself; there are also divisions for the House Office Buildings, the Senate Office Buildings, and the Library of Congress. I have looked at available floor plans for the Capitol, and cannot find any information on which room their Capitol division is located in; such information may be intentionally not disseminated for security reasons. --Jayron32 16:55, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sicknick served in the First Responder's Unit,[1] apparently part of the Capitol Division[2] – unless several divisions of the Uniformed Services Bureau have thus-named units, but this is made less likely by the fact that the first link does not mention a division, and that the other three divisions serve specific parts of the building. --Lambiam 17:49, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
- Reportedly, the effects of bear spray on people who do not suffer from asthma or COPD, affecting their ability to see and breathe freely, typically self-resolve in 10 to 20 minutes.[3] Officer Sicknick was sprayed at approximately 14:20 hours on January 6 and collapsed that evening at approximately 22:00 hours, about 7 hours and 40 minutes later. Although no report that I saw mentions anything to the effect, given these times it is possible that he, after recovering from having been sprayed, returned from the close-by offices at 119 D Street NE to the Capitol grounds, a ten-minute walk. --Lambiam 18:15, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for your efforts. It appears that the information is not publicly available. So far the news media has not reconciled the two reports of collapsed after returning to the division office and collapsed at the Capitol. They may be doing the police a courtesy if the division office is located at the Capitol and that's sensitive info. Anyhow, thanks again. Bob K31416 (talk) 15:54, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
