The FBI has arrested a man alleged to have taken part in the 6 January 2021 Capitol riot while wearing an unlikely mask: an enormous panda head.
Jesse James Rumson – dubbed the “sedition panda” by some – was arrested in Florida.
He now faces a series of charges, including assaulting or resisting a police officer and engaging in physical violence on restricted property.
Nearly 1,000 people have been arrested since the riot.
