SALT LAKE CITY — Additional criminal charges have been filed against two Utahns accused of participating in the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riot, federal court records show.
Brady Knowlton, 41, and Gary Wilson are each charged with theft of government property, accused of stealing an escape hood worth less than $1,000 from the Capitol building.
Escape hoods are gas-mask-like devices that help users avoid toxic chemicals for several hours. These were issued to members of Congress when they were evacuated from the Capitol on that day.
Knowlton, of St. George, was arrested in April 2021 and charged with entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds without lawful authority; violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, and obstruction of justice/Congress.
