Proud Boy arrested in Corinth, accused of entering U.S. Capitol during January siege
A California man who allegedly entered the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 riot and called a Capitol Police officer an oath-breaker was arrested in Denton County on Friday, the FBI confirmed.
Daniel Goodwyn, 32, of San Francisco was arrested in Corinth by the Dallas division of the FBI on Friday. An FBI spokesperson said Goodwyn was in Corinth with family when they located him.
He is charged with knowingly and unlawfully entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds. The Jan. 6 riot led to the deaths of five people, including a Capitol officer.
The criminal complaint says Goodwyn is a self-proclaimed member of the Proud Boys, a group known to the FBI as being present and disrupting the functions of the U.S. Congress on Jan. 6. The far-right group describes themselves as Western chauvinists.
