Connecticut Woman Shot Dead Outside Capitol By The Police (See Her Photos)

There was horror on the Hill when a crazed Connecticut woman who tried to ram her way into the White House was shot and killed Thursday after she led police on a high-speed chase through the heart of Washington.

Two police officers were injured trying to stop Miriam Carey, but the year-old baby girl she had taken along on her death ride somehow survived, police said.

Now investigators are trying to determine why Carey, a 34-year-old dental hygienist from Stamford who once lived in Brooklyn, went on a tear.
