WASHINGTON, DC: Capitol Police are grappling with an unexpected and concerning discovery as a small bag containing white powder, later identified as cocaine, was found in their headquarters.
The incident, which occurred on Wednesday, May 15, has sparked an internal investigation into how the illicit substance made its way into a sensitive area just steps away from the chambers of Congress.
An officer stumbled upon the bag shortly before 1 pm and conducted a field test, which confirmed the substance as cocaine. Capitol Police's Investigations Division has since taken charge of the matter, launching a thorough probe that includes scouring for DNA evidence to identify the individual responsible for its placement.
This recent incident bears an eerie resemblance to a similar occurrence just over ten months ago, when cocaine was unexpectedly discovered within the White House premises.
Despite the extensive efforts, the Secret Service failed to name a suspect, citing "a lack of physical evidence" as the primary hindrance. The absence of fingerprints and insufficient DNA samples thwarted any conclusive findings, leaving the case unresolved.
