Riot body count - gunshot, heart attack, not sure, trampled, beat with fire extinguisher

No links. Just from reports I’ve read and some comments on TV (not RW news)

The woman shot who bled out
The 55 year old guy who had a heart attack. Possible tasering of self....like his SELF
No reports on the other medical emergency that I’ve seen
The 34 year old woman who passed was apparently trampled to death
The Capitol police officer died as a (possible stroke) result of incident with rioters. I’ve heard that a fire extinguisher was involved.

What a horrible mess. All of it.

If he was hit with the fire extinguisher, but thought he was fine, it was possibly a blood clot caused by the blow.

The same thing happened to Natasha Richardson (Liam Neeson's wife), if memory serves me correctly.

Edit: She had an epidural hematoma caused by a head injury
