Armed supporters of soon to be Ex-President Donald Trump, stormed the Capitol building and forced a lockdown.
According to the police, a woman was shot dead by police and three others have died of “medical emergencies”.
The Congress reconvened after the violence and has now certified Joe Biden’s election win.
Some Republicans were trying to overturn the results in some states but due to lack of sufficient support, it wasn’t possible.
Donald Trump has called on his violent supporters to go home but kept repeating false claims that the election was stolen.
Meanwhile, he has now released a statement promising an orderly transition of power.
Earlier, Democrats won two Senate seats in Georgia that tipped control of the Senate their way.
