Two Montana brothers who were among the first to enter the Capitol building during the Jan. 6 riot and can be seen on video footage chasing a Black officer up a flight of stairs were charged Thursday with several federal offenses.
Joshua Calvin Hughes and Jerod Wade Hughes were two of the first 10 rioters to breach the Capitol building earlier this month as Congress certified Electoral College vote, the FBI said in charging documents.
The pair climbed through a broken window helped to kick a door down to allow more rioters to enter.
