Olathe man associated with Proud Boys “wielded an axe handle” at U.S. Capitol attack Billy Chrestman, an Olathe resident, was involved in the Jan. 6 riot at Capitol Hill, the Kansas City Star reports. Chrestman “wielded an ax handle” and “led chants” during the riot, according to his former high school peers and “watchdogs monitoring the movement,” the Star reports. Although Chrestman is said to have self-identified as a Proud Boy — a far-right, all-male group known for violence — Facebook posts in question have been deleted. Additionally, the Star reports Chrestman declined to comment on both his involvement in the Capitol attack or with the Proud Boys.
