All I have right now is a couple of tweets from a South Carolina reporter covering their congressional delegation, but we'll add more as it becomes available.
Gunshots reported in the Capitol Visitors Center, we hear over the loudspeaker. Shelter in place, we're told.

Capitol Police says something is going on outside and we are supposed to stay in the Senate press gallery so there's that.

Update 1:
UPDATE: Capitol's Sergeant At Arms: "Shooter has been caught. One police office shot, but not seriously. Remain sheltered in place."

Update 2:
From a teacher who is currently there with his students:
.@Karoli we are on lockdown. Sweep being done to make sure it was just one shooter. We're told it was just one shooter. Shooter is down

Update 3 3:16 Eastern
MSNBC reports injury was a Capitol officer shooting an armed suspect before the suspect shot. The injury to the intruder is not considered serious, and he is being treated at a local hospital, presumably before being charged with illegal firearms possession.
Update 4: 3:28 Eastern
MSNBC reporting all clear.
