Washington, D.C. Police Lieutenant Indicted for Allegedly Obstructing Justice and Making False Statements in Connection with Capitol Attack

A high-ranking lieutenant in the Washington, D.C., police department was indicted by a federal grand jury for allegedly obstructing justice and making false statements. The indictment alleges that Lieutenant Shane Lamond tipped off former Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio about a pending warrant for his arrest just ahead of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. If convicted, Lamond faces up to 20 years in prison for the obstruction of justice charge and up to five years for each of the false statement charges. Federal prosecutors have charged more than 400 people in connection with the Capitol attack, and the investigation is ongoing.
