Prosecutors say a Delaware man photographed carrying a Confederate battle flag during a deadly riot in the U.S. Capitol was arrested Thursday after authorities used the image to help identify him.
A news release from Washington-based federal prosecutors said that Kevin Seefried was arrested in Delaware, along with his son Hunter Seefried.
Prosecutors said both entered the Senate Building through a broken window before Kevin Seefried was seen carrying around the Confederate flag in photos that caught attention from news outlets and social media.
Both were charged with unlawfully entering a restricted building, violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds and degradation of government property.
