Não sei se era a isso que o LR se estava a referir ou não mas «Garganta Funda» era o nome de código do informador dos jornalistas do NYT no célebre caso Watergate que levou à demissão de Richard Nixon.

Uma «inside joke» dado que o caso é contemporâneo do filme pornográfico com o mesmo nome, «Garganta Funda».

Police said there was a firing range two floors away from the garage and the Rayburn building and tunnels below the Capitol remained closed during the police investigation.

Senate Sergeant at Arms Bill Pickle told Reuters there were no reports of any arrests or injuries though several ambulances were brought to the scene.

"We have been told by staff of shots fired and the smell of smoke," Pickle said. He later raised the possibility that a firecracker might have been the cause.

Security at the Capitol and across official Washington was tightened after the September 11 attacks. Congressional buildings have been evacuated quickly and locked down several times since in the face of perceived threats.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Capitol Police were investigating the sound of gunfire in the garage of a House of Representatives office building, Capitol Police said on Friday.

The gunfire was heard in the garage level of the Rayburn building, which houses offices of members of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Senate Sergeant at Arms Bill Pickle told Reuters: "We have been told by staff of shots fired and the smell of smoke in the lobby of the Rayburn House building."

Pickle said there were no reports of any injuries.



Rep. Peter Hoekstra, a Michigan Republican and head of the House intelligence committee, also said there were reports of "gunfire in the building" and said the office building had been locked down, with no one allowed to enter or leave.
