NATIONAL: FIFTH TENNESSEE RESIDENT ARRESTED IN CONNECTION WITH CAPITOL RIOTS

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A spokesperson for the FBI confirmed a man was arrested in connection to the U.S. Capitol riots on Sunday morning.

The U.S. Attorney said FBI agents arrested Blake A. Reed on charges related to the riots. Reed was arrested in the Wedgewood-Houston community. Nashville NBC affiliate News4 was there as FBI agents took him out of the home and into custody.

Reed has been charged in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia with Knowingly Entering or Remaining in any Restricted Building or Grounds Without Lawful Authority and Violent Entry and Disorderly Conduct on Capitol Grounds. He will appear before a U.S. Magistrate Judge on Tuesday in Nashville.

Neighbors said they heard the FBI announce themselves around 6 a.m. when they arrived at the home.

“I looked out the window and saw flashing lights and folks in assault-style military gear,” neighbor Brice McCloud said. “The guy who lives there has always been super friendly to us.”FULL STORY HERE
