Antwione Williams, a former Detroit Lions player, was arrested by the FBI on charges stemming from his involvement in the January 6 Capitol riots, marking the first arrest of a Trump supporter since his recent reelection. Williams faces seven charges, including assaulting an officer and engaging in violence on Capitol grounds, as prosecutors allege he pushed through barricades and physically attacked police. His identification was aided by distinct items he wore during the riot, such as a golf hat and a unique key fob, which online sleuths nicknamed him 'RiotingGolfer'. He remained at the Capitol until after the certification of Joe Biden's presidency, and his financial records placed him near the riot's location on January 6. This incident adds to the over 1,500 arrests connected to the Capitol breach, as the FBI continues to seek out other suspects. Williams, who had a brief NFL career, was drafted by the Lions in 2016 but was waived the following year.
