A mob of pro-abortion protesters besieged the Arizona Senate building for a time Friday evening following the announcement earlier in the day by the U.S. Supreme Court that a majority of justices voted to overturn the notorious abortion ruling Roe v. Wade legalizing the procedure across the country in 1973.

"Last night, anti-life radicals converged on the Arizona Senate and attempted to disrupt our work with terror and violence," Arizona Sen. Wendy Rogers (R) noted on her blog.

"They repeatedly attempted to breach the perimeter and enter the building but law enforcement bravely stood their ground and saved the day. Below is a summary of the events, along with on-the-scene video footage of the insurrection," she added, going on to heap further praise on officers.

She also live-tweeted about the siege.

"Education protesters threatened to break the AZ Senate entryway glass. We assembled to take tunnel to the House. Crowd was dispersed w/ tear gas. Went back up into the Senate," she wrote, adding: "Senate building IS secure. No exiting due to tear gas. We still have six bills to vote on. Tear gas odor remnant in Senate chamber."
