(8,054 posts)face-down wasn't Capitol police, he was DC Metro, from what I understand--I think that was Officer Fanone, who was interviewed this week. (Neck tattoo guy.) I haven't been able to find any information about where Sicknick was struck with the extinguisher, or footage of his attack. There were other officers hit by flying extinguishers on camera. I think Sicknick did not collapse or die on the steps, he went back to his office and collapsed there later, and then died at the hospital. It's all very confusing, though, and you may have more accurate information.
