CAPITOL attack suspect Noah Green reportedly tried to change his last name to Muhammed after calling himself a follower of the Nation of Islam and its leader Louis Farrakhan.
The name change petition was filed by Green, 25, in December 2020 - months before he rammed two Capitol police officers with his car on Friday, killing one, before being shot dead by cops.

Officer William “Billy” Evans, an 18-year veteran of the force, died Friday after the driver rammed into the barricade near the Capitol. The driver was identified as 25-year-old former Christopher Newport University football player Noah Green.
