Cameras placed atop Capitol dome

WASHINGTON — The NSA may be listening, but it’s the Capitol Police who are watching — now that they’ve placed five eye-in-the-sky cameras atop the Capitol dome.

The 288-foot-high cameras generally aren’t noticeable. But they appeared Sunday in a “60 Minutes” segment about the 150th anniversary of the dome’s completion.

Capitol Police declined to discuss them.
