FBI arrests two brothers from Southern California in Capitol riot case, after receiving an anonymous tip from Finland.
Link to tweet
The day after the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, an anonymous tipster from Finland alerted the FBI to a video on a Finnish newspapers website. It showed a man with a bloody forehead outside the Capitol building wearing a black ballistic vest and an American flag as a cape.
There were people scuffling with the cops, and thats when I got hit with a projectile not sure what it was, the 33-year-old man, Kevin Cordon of Alhambra, told a U.S. correspondent for the Finnish publication Ilta Sanomat.
And then from there, we proceeded into the broken windows and into the Capitol building. We were walking around the hallways, and the Trump supporters were all going nuts.
On Tuesday, Cordon and his brother, Sean Carlo Cordon, 35, of Los Angeles, were arrested and charged with violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds and other crimes stemming from the assault on the Capitol by Donald Trump supporters, authorities said. The mob broke into the building in an attempt to stop Congress from certifying Joe Bidens victory in the presidential election.
