Washington DC’s CBS affiliate reports:
A Florida man whose younger half-brother was convicted last year of participating in the Capitol riot was arrested Wednesday for allegedly assaulting police on Jan. 6. David Kennedy Homol, 55, of Umatilla, Florida, faces felony charges of obstruction of an official proceeding, civil disorder and assaulting, resisting or impeding police.
According to charging documents, investigators became aware of Homol’s alleged acts at the Capitol while preparing for the trial of his younger half-brother Dillon Homol. The younger Homol had been preparing to call his older half-brother as a witness in his case when investigators discovered video showing the two of them walking to the Capitol together.
investigators say Homol sent his younger half-brother a text reading, “Today was not an antifa-inspired statement. It was totally done by angry Trump supporters with no firearms, many singing GOD bless America, Jesus saves, etc.”
