Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick suffered two strokes and died of natural causes the day after a violent riot broke out at the U.S. Capitol Building in early January, according to the D.C. medical examiner.
Immediately following Sicknick’s death, The New York Times reported on January 8 that Sicknick “was struck with a fire extinguisher, according to two law enforcement officials.” Two men were later accused of spraying Sicknick with a chemical irritant.
