Texas Man Arrested For Role in Riot
We will keep sharing updates on whether or not justice is being served after the disgusting, violent, racist riot from last week.
Texas has arrested a man who played a part.
He denies any wrong-doing but has been taken into custody:
Larry Rendall Brock Jr., a decorated Air Force combat veteran who was photographed holding zip ties in the Senate chamber during the riot at the U.S. Capitol this week, has been arrested and charged.
Brock, was arrested in Texas on Sunday and charged in federal court in the District of Columbia with one count of knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and one count of violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, according to the Department of Justice (DOJ).
Brock was allegedly identified as one of the individuals who unlawfully entered the Capitol building on Wednesday "wearing a green helmet, green tactical vest with patches, black and camo jacket, and beige pants holding a white flex cuff, which is used by law enforcement to restrain and/or detain subjects," the DOJ said in a news release.
The Dallas Morning News reported that an arrest warrant affidavit said a caller who identified herself as Brock's ex-wife identified him in photos taken during Wednesday's riot. The affidavit said she had recognized his helmet, pants and patches from his military service.
