Two men from Cary and Raleigh were charged this month for their actions during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.
The Department of Justice on Monday said Christopher Carnell, 20, of Cary, and David Worth Bowman, 21, of Raleigh, were charged with felony obstructing, influencing or impeding any official preceding for their actions on Jan. 6.
The two were also charged with four misdemeanors, including:
- Knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority
- Engaging in disorderly or disruptive conduct in any restricted building or grounds
- Entering or remaining on the floor of a House of Congress without authorization
- Parading, demonstrating, or picketing in any of the Capitol buildings
Carnell was arrested on Thursday, March 2. Bowman was arrested Monday.
According to court documents, Carnell and Bowman were captured on surveillance video entering the Senate floor on Jan. 6. They were seen "rifling through papers on Senators' desks" and joining a crowd of people chanting "treason."
FBI agents used search warrants obtained in December to search Bowman's cell phone, where both men were documented in the riot.
According to the DOJ, nearly 1,000 people have been arrested in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to the U.S. Capitol riot.
As of Monday, 29 people from North Carolina have been arrested and charged with crimes connected to the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol.
