Texas authorities arrested a Jan. 6 rioter recently pardoned by President Trump on Thursday for online solicitation of a minor.
The Harris County district attorney’s office said it took Andrew Taake into custody Thursday morning for the May 2016 charges, according to a post to the social media platform X.
Taake was sentenced to six years in prison last June after pleading guilty to assaulting police officers with bear spray during the riot at the Capitol. He was released from federal custody in Florence, Colo., on Jan. 20 despite the county’s request for federal authorities to hold him.
