Capitol mob member who lounged at Nancy Pelosi's desk is arrested

Richard Barnett will face federal charges, as will the West Virginia lawmaker Derrick Evans

A man photographed lounging with his foot on the desk in House speaker Nancy Pelosi's office in Washington as part of a pro-Trump mob that breached security and rampaged through the US Capitol was arrested on Friday.

Richard Barnett, 60, of Gravette, Arkansas, was taken into custody in that state and, along with the West Virginia state representative Derrick Evans, who was also arrested, faces federal charges stemming from the siege of the Capitol on Wednesday, federal prosecutors said.
