Robert Sanford is facing three federal felony charges, including assaulting a police officer.

He was taken into custody by the FBI on Thursday morning, just before 6am told The Daily Beast.

The retired firefighter, from Pennsylvania, was allegedly seen throwing an extinguisher at a police officer.

However, this was separate from the one that killed Officer Brian Sicknick, officials told the Wall Street Journal.

A photograph calling for a rioter's identification was released after footage emerged of the moment a protester hit an officer in the head with a fire extinguisher during Wednesday's protest.
