Family tips off FBI to Capitol rioter who smashed windows where Ashli Babbitt was shot

A man who was filmed smashing windows in the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, at the spot where Ashli Babbitt was fatally shot, was arrested Saturday after a family member tipped off the FBI, federal prosecutors said.

Zachary Jordan Alam was arrested in Pennsylvania and faces charges of assault on a federal officer with a dangerous or deadly weapon, destruction of government property, unlawful entry in a restricted building without lawful authority, and violent entry and disorderly conduct, a federal criminal complaint said.

Video footage showed Alam — with his mask pulled down — pushing past security personnel and screaming “F--- the blue!” before reaching the doors of the Speaker’s Lobby, which leads to the House Chamber, the affidavit said.

There, Alam grabbed a black helmet from another rioter and used it to smash the glass panes, shattering the windows, according to the document. Shortly after, Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt tried to climb through the shattered glass and was fatally shot by a Capitol police officer, the affidavit said.

I'm glad they got him. I hope the images of his insurrection haunts him for the rest of his miserable life in jail.

but someone getting killed during the commission of a felony...she was murdered by her fellow insurrectionists.

it's hard to be certain but i believe there were congress people on the other side of that door at that moment and that is why she was shot.

So he may have chosen that particular shirt deliberately.

to have family members rat you out. That it's happened to so many underscores the reality that these folks are unhinged and a danger to society.
