Federal charges have been filed against a man who allegedly took part in the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot, with prosecutors accusing him of attacking a police officer who suffered a concussion.
CNN reports that Ryan Stephen Samsel was arrested in Pennsylvania on Saturday. He has been charged with forcibly assaulting a police officer, attempting to obstruct a police officer and obstructing an official proceeding, according to the network.
"In the process of pushing the barricades to the ground, SAMSEL and others knocked over (a) U.S. Capitol Police Officer ... as the crowd lifted the barricades up and pushed toward the Capitol, causing (the officer's) head to hit the stairs behind her, resulting in a loss of consciousness,” stated court documents obtained by CNN.
