A former Army captain and Iraq War veteran was arrested Tuesday in South Florida for his alleged role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot after he was identified by the FBI using Facebook Live videos he made inside the building during the breach.
Gabriel A. Garcia, who left the Army in 2017, broadcast himself and others pushing against police lines to gain entrance to the Capitol building. At one point, Garcia was heard on the video calling police “fucking traitors” and warned the officers that they “ain’t gonna hold a million back today,” according to a federal criminal complaint.
Garcia, who was also a 2020 candidate for the Florida State House, was charged with violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, as well as aiding and abetting certain acts during civil disorder.
