Salt Lake City’s NBC News affiliate reports:
Six months before stabbing a man to death in Liberty Park in a dispute over money, it appears that a Salt Lake man may have traveled to Washington and participated in the U.S. Capitol riot while armed with a gun.
But despite published photos that appear to show him at the Capitol that day displaying a weapon, despite tips sent to the FBI about him and despite the fact that he told police he was part of the mob that went inside the Capitol that day, the Utah man has not been arrested or charged in connection with the riot and it’s unknown whether he has even been questioned by the FBI.
Online sleuths believe they have identified John Banuelos in photos published by the FBI from the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol in Washington. The man is pictured in FBI photos with a handgun in his waistband.
