A regulation enforcement member was arrested and two Capitol Cops have been suspended for his or her conduct throughout the violent rebel on the U.S. Capitol final week, Rep. Tim Ryan mentioned Monday.

“The Capitol Police are taking a look at everyone concerned that probably facilitated on a giant stage or a small stage in any manner and it’s necessary that they’re cracking down,” Mr. Ryan, Ohio Democrat, informed reporters.

“It was the interim [Capitol Police] chief who decided that to be qualifying for fast suspension,” Mr. Ryan continued.

Mr. Ryan mentioned one of many officers who was suspended was noticed on social media taking a selfie with one of many rioters. The opposite suspended officer apparently wore a crimson “Make America Nice Once more” hat and directed the mob, in line with the congressman.

Mr. Ryan didn’t supply any particulars in regards to the particular person arrested, saying he was uncertain if it was a member of the Capitol Police, the Nationwide Guard, or different regulation enforcement.

The Washington Instances reached out to the Capitol Police, the U.S. Legal professional’s Workplace for the District of Columbia and the Washington Police for remark. Not one of the businesses had instantly responded to that request.
