(CNN)A Florida firefighter was arrested for unlawful entry of a restricted building and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, according to court documents, after a photo surfaced of him wearing a Trump 2020 hat and pointing at a placard for Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi inside the US Capitol.
Andrew Williams, a firefighter-paramedic with the Sanford Fire Department, appeared in federal court Tuesday and was released on a $25,000 signature bond, according to the court documents.

200 arrests already, yet they only managed to arrest a handful in 6 months of riots, looting and public/private property destruction. It’s surreal.
No church burners in DC were arrested. Burning a historic church is peaceful protest
The left must be put to the sword.
He'll be bankrupted.
How many of the harpies who took over Grassley’s office during the Kavanaugh hearings were ever identified, let alone arrested?
How many were prosecuted for attacking the white house.
Too bad he didn’t burn down a store in DC and the NFL would have his name on their helmets.
If this is what running scared looks like, I can't wait to see what emboldened looks like.
I’m sorry...if he entered the building illegally he should be prosecuted.....we are not like Antifa!!!!
When pointing is outlawed, only outlaws will point.
Oh they have much bigger plans for sure
Selective prosecution is persecution.
Leftist Rioters who burned cities to the ground and killed people are still walking free. Yet strolling into an office is a capital offense?
Yeah right scared, is that what totalitarianism is called these days...
this from the article
“Williams has been placed on administrative leave without pay, according to an updated release from the fire department.
As one of the bail conditions, Williams must appear at all court proceedings. In addition, he is not allowed to possess firearms, ammunition or dangerous weapons, and must surrender his passport by Friday.
Records from federal court in Florida show that Williams’ case is being transferred to the District of Columbia.”
BTW - He had a brief lapse of judgement when he “decided” to be born white, and male./s
(Good grief - can we see the rest of the “evidence” now?)
And he is now claiming that he was incited by President Trump.
This firefighter needs to not blame others.

200 arrests already? Wow. They can work fast when they want to. They sure didn’t work fast with the protestors in Seattle and Portland — or anywhere else.
Nor did the DOJ rush to investigate election improprieties other than Trump’s people. I wonder what will happen to the citizens who were brave enough to testify under oath.
“Did they ask me to leave?”
“”restricted building””
Well, I’ll be! And all the while politicians and those REPORTING (?) and commenting on the episode call it the “people’s house.” It’s the “people’s house” but it’s a restricted building? The writer probably meant something else but I’m not going to do their writing for them.
“”Speaking of which, I’ve noticed that almost 100% of the stories about the Capitol incident refer to those involved as “white supremacists.”””
Absolutely - and someone last night - must be on Hannity said that they have NOTHING else so they are going to stick to the “racist” reference for lack of any substance in their playbook. It could have been either Larry Elder or Leo Terrell who said it...and it was all too clear what they’re doing.
I watched as much as I could stand of the coverage in the House today and every single democrat I heard referred to “racist” or “white supremacist” in their statements.
I DID NOT want to see or hear one split second of their performance but we are going to be faced with 4 years of much worse so I figured I’d take today’s FARCE in increments and perhaps inoculate myself for what is to come. I have let it get to me and for my sanity and my health, I cannot ignore/avoid what is ahead.
If that’s his defense, then he’s a leftist...
Check his voting record.
