周三,参议院听证会上爆发混乱,来自蒙大拿州的共和党参议员蒂姆·希伊跳出来协助国会警察移除一名抗议者——这一冲突可能导致该男子受伤。
事件视频显示,前海军海豹突击队员希伊在警察试图带走美国海军陆战队退伍军人、北卡罗来纳州绿党参议院候选人布赖恩·麦金尼斯时介入。
希伊在一份声明中表示:“国会警察当时正试图将一名‘精神失常’的抗议者从武装部队听证会上带离。”
“他进行反抗,我决定出手相助并缓和局势。”他补充道,“这位先生来到国会是为了挑起冲突,而他确实做到了。我希望他能在不造成进一步暴力的情况下获得所需帮助。”
冲突发生前,麦金尼斯在参议院武装部队委员会关于“联合部队当前战备状态”的听证会上站起来,大声喊道:“美国不想让其子女为以色列参战。”
警方立即采取行动将其带离听证会现场,两名警察试图控制麦金尼斯。经过一番拉扯,他们将其带至出口。就在此时,希伊介入了。

视频显示,麦金尼斯抓住门把并死死抵住,将手臂夹在门与门框之间。当警察和希伊试图将他拉开时,视频中传来一声响亮的“咔嚓”声。目前尚不清楚他的手臂是否在冲突中骨折。
国会警察在声明中称:“一名男子在听证会上非法抗议,通过暴力抵抗并阻挠警方将其带离现场,将所有人置于危险境地。”

警方表示,在试图带离麦金尼斯的过程中,有三名警察受伤接受治疗。他们补充称,麦金尼斯“故意将手臂卡在门内以抵抗警方,并强行试图返回听证会现场”,并已接受治疗。
麦金尼斯面临三项袭击警察、三项拒捕,以及一项与非法示威相关的“扰乱、阻碍和干扰集会”指控。

Chaos erupted during a Senate hearing Wednesday when Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Mont., jumped in to help Capitol Police remove a protester — an encounter that may have left the man injured.
Video of the incident showed Sheehy, a former Navy SEAL, stepping in as officers struggled to remove Brian McGinnis, a Marine Corps veteran running as a Green Party candidate for Senate in North Carolina.
Sheehy said in a statement that “Capitol Police were attempting to remove an unhinged protester from the Armed Services hearing.”

“He was fighting back. I decided to help out and deescalate the situation,” he said. “This gentleman came to the Capitol looking for a confrontation, and he got one. I hope he gets the help he needs without causing further violence.”
Before the scuffle, McGinnis stood up during a Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on the Current Readiness of the Joint Force hearing and shouted, “America does not want to send its sons and daughters to war for Israel.”
Police immediately moved to remove him from the hearing room, with two officers attempting to corral McGinnis. After a struggle, they got him to the exit. That’s where Sheehy stepped in.

McGinnis grabbed the door and held on, wedging his arm between the door and its frame. As officers and Sheehy pushed to get him to let go, a loud cracking sound could be heard in the video. It was not immediately clear whether his arm was broken during the struggle.
Capitol Police said in a statement that “an unruly man who started to illegally protest during a hearing put everyone in a dangerous position by violently resisting and fighting our officers’ attempts to remove him from the room.”

Police said three officers were treated for injuries after working to remove McGinnis. They added that he “got his own arm stuck in a door to resist our officers and force his way back into the hearing room” and was also treated.
McGinnis faces three counts of assault on a police officer, three counts of resisting arrest, and a charge of crowding, obstructing and incommoding related to the unlawful demonstration.

“Protests are not allowed inside the congressional buildings,” Capitol Police said. “There are plenty of other spots on Capitol Grounds, outside, where demonstrations are allowed.”
