Davis is outside the Capitol carrying a large pole or stick. He allegedly wielded this at police.
After pushing an officer, he supposedly said: “I fought for this country, what the **** are you doing? I’m military police.”
Please keep in mind that in the United States, every citizen charged with a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
