A Texas man was arrested on Wednesday on felony and misdemeanor charges related to the Jan. 6, 2021, breach of the U.S. Capitol.

Kyle Douglas McMahan, who currently serves as a staff sergeant in the U.S. Air Force, was taken into custody in Dallas nearly three years after he allegedly pushed police officers and called one officer a “traitor,” the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on Wednesday, Dec. 6.
