WASHINGTON, DC — A man from Colorado Springs has pleaded guilty to assaulting a law enforcement officer during the Jan. 6, 2021 breach at the U.S. Capitol.
Based on court documents, on Jan. 6, 2021, Grace marched to the U.S. Capitol and joined a group of rioters who were trying to push past law enforcement officers in the Lower West Terrace Tunnel entrance to the building. The DOJ said at 3:12 p.m., Grace entered that tunnel and worked his way into the mob inside the tunnel. He used his body weight to push in unison with others against the police officers, the DOJ said.
The mob kept pushing until about 3:18 p.m., when police were again able to get them out of the tunnel. Grace stayed near the mouth of the tunnel as rioters violently went after police. He also"watched close by as rioters dragged a Metropolitan Police Department officer out of the Tunnel and attacked him," the DOJ said.
