Conlin Weyer was arrested Friday by federal agents. He is charged with disorderly conduct, entering a restricted building and parading in the Capitol.
Court documents include photographs of a man identified Weyer with a crowd of insurgents at the doors to the Capitol, and then inside the building. One photograph shows the man identified as Weyer inside the Capitol Rotunda.
