Jacob Anthony Chansley, The so-called "QAnon Shaman," of Arizona is charged with knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority, and with violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.
Prosecutors say Chansley, also known as Jake Angeli, was arrested Saturday.
Angeli distinguished himself from other insurgents in the Capitol by wearing face paint, a bearskin headdress and no shirt. He also carried a six-foot-long spear with an American flag tied below the blade.
West Virginia Delegate Derrick Evans, 35, was charged with one count of knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority; and one count of violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol Grounds.
Authorities say they arrested Evans on Friday.
The recently elected Evans streamed live to his Facebook page a video of himself joining and encouraging a crowd unlawfully entering the U.S. Capitol. In the video, Evans is allegedly seen crossing the threshold of the doorway into the U.S. Capitol and shouting, "We’re in, we’re in! Derrick Evans is in the Capitol!"
The cases are being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia and investigated by the FBI’s Washington Field Office and the United States Capitol Police.
Federal authorities continue to search for the suspect who planted pipe bombs throughout the District on Wednesday, as well as other rioters.
