One of the dozens of police officers injured during the U.S. Capitol riot testified Wednesday that he didn't punch or instigate a fight with a man in the mob, a retired New York City police officer charged with attacking the officer.
Thomas Webster, whose trial on an assault charge started this week, claims he was acting in self-defense when he tackled Metropolitan Police Department officer Noah Rathbun outside the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
