At least 85 people are charged with carrying or using a weapon during the Capitol riots," Buzzfeed News reported last month, citing its analysis of court records, detailing them as: "Guns, knives, bats, chemicals, stolen police gear, flagpoles, a 'Trump 2020' sign, pieces of metal and wood, crutches, a skateboard, stun devices, a crow bar, and a firecracker."
"The US attorney’s office in Washington has said that approximately 140 police officers were assaulted on Jan. 6, and the majority of defendants charged with weapon-related offenses are also accused of using those objects to attack police. Some are charged with using weapons to break windows, and others are charged simply with having weapons at the Capitol, a crime in itself."
