Report: Capitol Police investigating why unit was sent to wrong location for Scalise shooting

About a month and a half after a man opened fire on Republicans practicing for a baseball game, Capitol Police are said to be investigating an error involving their response to the incident that day.

Bloomberg is reporting, based on inside sources, that the department's tactical team, including officers in the Capitol Police Containment and Emergency Response Team units, had initially been directed to the D.C. residence of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi -- not the Virginia baseball field where the shooting occurred.

The report points out that the team did ultimately arrive at the field, but said "it's unclear how much time the unit lost because of the mix-up."
