U.S. prosecutors have arrested a group of Florida residents and charged them with attacking police officers during the deadly Jan. 6 siege of the U.S. Capitol, according to court documents made public on Thursday.
Four people from the Tampa Bay area — Olivia Pollock, Joshua Doolin, Joseph Hutchinson and Michael Perkins — were arrested on June 30, prosecutors said. A fifth person, Jonathan Daniel Pollock, has not been apprehended.
More than 535 people have been arrested and charged with joining the attack, an unsuccessful attempt to stop Congress from certifying former President Donald Trump's election defeat.
Justice Department lawyers said all of the defendants except Doolin attacked members of the District of Columbia police force on Jan. 6, at times using makeshift weapons like stolen riot shields and flagpoles.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel LOCK EM ALL UP!!!
...."Tuesday marked six months since the assault, which the FBI said has led to more than 165 arrests of people on charges of assaulting, resisting or impeding police officers and other employees of the Capitol, including 50 charged with using a deadly weapon or seriously injuring a police officer.
Five people died during the violence and the following day, including a Capitol Police officer. Two police officers who took part in the defense of the Capitol later took their own lives, and more than 100 police officers were injured."

Wrong! Only one person died as a result of violence. The other 4 were due to stress and other health issues. No PO was bashed by a fire extinguisher as reported by liberal media. The FBI also reported that no Guns/ weapons were found on protesters.
A male SS agent shot and killed an unarmed female. I’m sure he is proud and brave of how he handle a female with cops behind her. The government won’t release his name, but if a PO is involved in a shooting of a minority, that PO is identified and crucified.
Her parents have a right to know!
