A Wisconsin man who fled to Ireland to avoid serving a prison sentence for his involvement in the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol has been apprehended and is now facing additional charges, according to federal authorities.
The man, aged 56, had been ordered to surrender and serve a three-month prison term for his role in the Capitol riot. He was arrested upon voluntarily returning to the U.S. from Ireland and is currently serving his sentence at a federal prison in Chicago, with a scheduled release date of September 8. However, a new misdemeanor charge could potentially extend his time behind bars.
