A judge on Monday said that a Colorado hunting guide accused of attacking a U.S. Capitol Police officer on Jan. 6 should be placed under house arrest after he allegedly had possession of a gun and shot and killed a mountain lion.
Prosecutors said that Patrick Montgomery, 48, killed the mountain lion during a March 31 hunt. They said that he was ordered by a judge not to have any “illegal guns” while he was facing charges related to the Jan. 6 incident, according to a motion filed (pdf) on May 12.
