MILTON, Ga. (AP) Two additional Georgia men have been arrested on criminal charges related to alleged acts committed during the attack on the U.S. Capitol last month, authorities said.
Benjamin Harry Torre, 23, of Dawsonville, was arrested by federal agents in Atlanta on Tuesday and charged with knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds in connection with the Jan. 6 riots, according to a statement from the FBI.
Charging documents alleged he admitted to investigators that he climbed through a broken window to enter the Capitol building and also entered the office of Democratic Sen. Jeff Merkley of Oregon.
18-year-old Bruno Cua of Milton allegedly breached the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, making it to the Senate floor and getting into an altercation with Capitol Police, according to federal court documents released Monday.
