At least 12 service members have been arrested for storming the Capitol

Marine Micah Coomer, stationed at Camp Pendleton, and two other Marines are charged with participating in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol, authorities said in newly filed court papers.

The Marines face four misdemeanor charges each — two counts of disorderly conduct, one count of knowingly entering a restricted building, and one count of parading, demonstrating or picketing in the Capitol.

Court records show that Micah Coomer, Joshua Abate and Dodge Dale Hellonen were arrested this week on misdemeanor charges after fellow Marines helped investigators identify them in footage among the pro-Trump mob on Jan. 6, 2021.

Federal investigators say Dodge Dale Hellonen and two friends went into the Capitol building during the Jan. 6 attack. The Marine faces four charges.
