Trump acquitted of inciting Capitol attack in second impeachment trial
The US senate has acquitted former president Donald Trump of inciting the January 6 attack on the US Capitol.
The vote gave Mr Trump a historic second acquittal in an impeachment trial.
House Democrats, who voted a month ago to charge Mr Trump with “incitement of insurrection”, needed two thirds of the senate, or 67 votes, to convict him.
The vote was 57-43, short of the two-thirds needed for conviction.
Seven Republicans broke party ranks to find Mr Trump guilty.
