The woman was already on the ground with other demonstrators. There was a photo with another guy beside her. They were prone, on the ground and not resisting at all. Cops had their guns pointed at them. He was negligent to point his gun on a demonstrator on the ground. So, should be suspended as a minimum. If it was an Antifa or BLM thug, he would be up on murder charges for starters so, he should consider himself lucky.
Did you see the video of the shooting? Here it is (23 second clip in article) https://nypost.com/2021/01/06/us-capitol-chaos-video-captures-moment-when-woman-was-shot/

My heart goes out to both the officer and this woman. It’s just tragic and stupid to have to fire or take a bullet for Trump.
Does anyone know whether that woman was or is alleged to have been shot by a protester or by the police? What is the reporting on that?
Thanks for the video. Hope others surface. My guess is that she was trying to climb through the opening left by the broken out window. Shooter was on the other side of that window, defending that space. First one trying to climb through gets the stupid-prize. Just a guess.
It is not clear yet. The initial reports claimed the shot came through a door, window or wall.... and it was discharged from a law enforcement officer. However there is no confirmation yet on any of this.
