NextImg:Maryland police officer charged for storming Capitol on January 6

An officer from the Montgomery County Police Department was arrested today after being indicted for his actions at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, which include assaulting police officers, according to an indictment.

Twenty-five-year-old Justin Lee of Rockville, Maryland is the subject of a seven-count indictment, according to a press release from the Department of Justice, which include “felony offenses of civil disorder and assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers.”

“In addition to the felonies,” the press release continues, “Lee is charged with several misdemeanor offenses, including entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, engaging in physical violence in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, and act of physical violence in the capitol grounds or buildings.

“According to the indictment, on January 6, 2021, Lee forcibly assaulted a law enforcement officer and obstructed, impeded, or interfered with a law enforcement officer during a civil disorder. Lee is also accused of entering and remaining in the US Capitol grounds while the vice president was and would be temporarily visiting without lawful authority to do so and engaging in disruptive conduct, physical violence, and disorderly conduct while on restricted grounds of the Capitol.”

Lee was not yet a police officer in 2021, raising concerns about the Montgomery County Police Department’s vetting procedures.
