NBC News reports:
A D.C. chiropractor who stormed the halls of Congress on Jan. 6 was arrested on federal charges Wednesday as FBI special agents descended on his office just blocks from the Capitol. A source familiar with the case confirmed to NBC News the arrest of David Walls-Kaufman of the Capitol Hill Chiropractic Center. It was not immediately clear exactly where Walls-Kaufman was arrested.
Body camera footage from a device worn by the late D.C. Metropolitan Police Officer Jeffrey Smith shows Walls-Kaufman’s fist wrapped around Smith’s baton as police struggled to get rioters out of the Capitol building.He later told his wife that he was “punched in the face” and “hit in the head with a metal pole.” Smith died by suicide days after Jan. 6; his death was ruled as in the line of duty.
