FBI agents arrested a Huntington Beach man Thursday on allegations that he illegally entered the U.S. Capitol.
Mark Simon, who NBC Los Angeles reports is described in court papers as a “known activist.”
Simon was identified by photos and videos he’d posted online, according to an affidavit filed in court.
According to NBC LA, agents found a video clip posted to social media that appears to be Simon saying into the camera, “In the Capitol baby, yeah!” And another where he’s with a woman, titling the post, “From HB to DC: (redacted) and tanned BF help Storm the Capitol for Trump!”
Simon is expected to make an appearance in court Thursday afternoon.
This story is developing.
