Man accused of storming the Capitol with American flag painted on his head

A Kansas U.S. Marine veteran who donned a patriotic face mask and sported an American flag painted on his head while partaking in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot has been charged, The Kansas City Star reported.

Chad Dustin Suenram was arrested Monday and charged with knowingly entering or remaining in a restricted building or grounds without lawful authority; disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds; disorderly conduct in a Capitol building; and parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building.

Suenram, 43, was released on a $5,000 unsecured bond. His next court date is Aug. 1.

"According to the probable cause affidavit, the FBI tracked down Suenram after search warrant results showed that a cellphone associated with his company Gmail account was inside and outside the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, between 2:43 p.m. and 4:09 p.m. The business, New Look Companies Landscaping, is owned by Suenram, the document said," The Star's report stated.

"Through open sources, the FBI said it learned that Suenram traveled to Washington on Jan. 5, 2021, through a private bus charter company."
