The FBI has arrested a Capital Region resident for his role in the January 6th insurrection in Washington D.C.

26-year-old Brandon Fellows, who posted dozens of clips on social media of the events at the Capitol, reportedly said he had “no regrets” about entering building with the crowd of rioters.

FBI Albany Field Office Special Agent In Charge Thomas Relford said in a statement Sunday:

“We are determined to help our colleagues at [the FBI Washington Field Office] to identify, investigate, and bring to justice anyone involved in the siege and I expect more arrests in our region.”
