A Hudson Valley man has been arrested for his alleged participation in the US Capitol riots.
Federal authorities arrived at Edward Lang’s Newburgh home Saturday afternoon.
Lang is one of dozens of accused rioters facing charges nationwide.
The FBI shared his arrest on Twitter, saying in part: “Decisions have consequences. Edward Lang is in custody for the ones he made during the assault on our Capitol.”
The Newburgh man is expected in federal court in White Plains this week.
