New York Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge Thursday for pulling a fire alarm in a Capitol office building.
Bowman will deliver an apology to Capitol Police and pay a $1,000 fine, under a deal with prosecutors. In return, the charge is expected to be dismissed in three months.
Knowingly and falsely pulling a fire alarm is punishable by a fine or up to six months in prison, according to the District of Columbia criminal code.
