Orlando man becomes 25th Central Florida arrest connected to Capitol riots




Robert Fairchild, 40, facing multiple federal charges

An Orlando man became the 25th person from Central Florida arrested in connection to the Capitol riot.

Robert Flynt Fairchild, 40, a U.S. military veteran, was arrested by FBI agents on Friday morning.

He’s charged with nine counts, which include entering a restricted building, violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, assaulting and resisting officers, civil disorder and obstructing an official proceeding....

Investigators said Fairchild’s brother-in-law, who is a deputy in Georgia, identified him from a “wanted” image on the FBI’s Capitol riot website.
