Capitol Rioter in 'CNN Fake News' Cap Assaulted Police with a PVC Pole on Jan. 6, Feds Say

A Capitol rioter wearing a blue and white baseball cap which appears to say “CNN” and “Fake News” under the network’s name jabbed police officers with a PVC pole and tossed it at them, federal prosecutors announced on Thursday.

The FBI’s Salt Lake City Field Office arrested the 66-year-old rioter, Duke Edward Wilson of Nampa, Idaho, three days after the man was charged under seal in the District of D.C.

An FBI affidavit shows Wilson wielding the long, white, cylindrical pipe during a melee with officers in the lower west terrace tunnel area of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, as captured on footage from three YouTube videos, two law enforcement bodycams, and surveillance cameras on the property.

“Based on video review, the individual later identified as Wilson entered the lower west terrace tunnel area of the U.S. Capitol building shortly before 3 p.m. while rioters were pushing against law enforcement officers in an attempt to gain entry into the building,” the affidavit narrates. “Rioters appeared to spray liquid irritants toward the officers as they pushed on the officers’ shields. Wilson made his way to the front line of the officers. As officers tried to close a set of double doors, Wilson grabbed and tried to pull the door open. Wilson then raised what appeared to be a tablet device in order to deflect the spray of an irritant. Wilson was sprayed with the irritant by officers.”
