The Marine veteran, 44-year-old Brian McGinnis, has been charged with assault on a police officer and resisting arrest after attempting to protest inside the Capitol. In the video, a snap can be heard of McGinnis’ arm breaking as he resists arrest. U.S. Capitol Police say McGinnis and three officers were injured during the incident.
