Records show Fan faces four charges for the Jan. 6, 2021 riot. According to court documents, he's been charged with the following:
- Entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds
- Disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds
- Disorderly conduct in a Capitol building and grounds
- Parading, demonstrating or picketing in a Capitol building
Photos show officers escorting other men and Fan, wearing a red 'Make America Great Again' hat, outside of an office and into the hallway.
According to documents, Fan sent a photograph of his hat sitting on a desk inside the Capitol to another person. FBI agents interviewed the person, who stated the picture was taken inside the Capitol by Fan.
When agents interviewed Fan, he confirmed flying to Washington D.C., walking to the Capitol, and entering the Capitol building twice. The first time he was turned around by police, the second time, he crawled through a window into an office.
