Taylor Taranto, a 37-year-old man identified as a participant in the Jan. 6 insurrection, was arrested near former President Obama's home in Washington, D.C. on Thursday. He was arrested on an open warrant for an alleged assault at the Capitol and had two guns, 400 rounds of ammunition, and a machete in the van he appeared to be living in. A search of the van also revealed materials that could be used to create a Molotov cocktail. Taranto currently faces four misdemeanor counts in connection with Jan. 6 and the case is ongoing.
