ARLINGTON, Texas - Randall McPherson of Arlington is facing felony charges in connection to his actions in Washington D.C. on January 6, 2021, including allegedly assaulting a police officer.
McPherson was arrested Wednesday in Texas and charged with assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers; obstructing, impeding, or interfering with officers during a civil disorder; entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds; disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds; and physical violence in a restricted building or grounds.
Court documents say McPherson confronted police officers at the Lower West Plaza of the Capitol building, where bicycle racks had been set up.
McPherson allegedly yelled at police: "I bet your family is proud of you, f***ing f***** a**. You ain’t s***. Ain’t none of you s***. I'm here with my family and we love America. In Ohio, we take this stuff personal ".
When another rioter tried to pull the bicycle rack away from officers, McPherson allegedly shoved an officer in the back with two hands, knocking him to the ground.
More than 985 people have been arrested for crimes related to the breach of the Capitol on January 6, according to the FBI.
