A 41-year-old Iowa man was arrested Saturday on charges of being part of a Trump-backing mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol building on Wednesday.
Doug Jensen, of Des Moines, appears to be the man in front of a crowd that entered the Capitol and chased a black police officer down a flight of stairs in several videos of the riot, including a published by HuffPost reporter Igor Bobic.
Jensen was wearing a black Q-Anon T-shirt and a black cap as he chased the officer up the stairs to a lobby, where other officers joined in to confront the intruders. His face appeared in a photo series released by the FBI on Thursday.
In a TikTok video, already deleted, posted Thursday with the username @dougjensen, a man who looks like Jensen suggested he become a “poster boy” for what happened and ends up saying, “Don’t believe the The Associated Press reported.
According to a press release from the FBI’s field office in Omaha, Nebraska and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, he received the reservation early Saturday for five federal charges, including felony counts of felony and disorderly conduct. .
Jensen posted several photos of himself participating in the invasion, according to Des Moines’ record. He also posted photos in response to other accounts associated with the Q-Anon conspiracy community on social media, asking them if they liked his t-shirt.
Jensen was one of the other riot police arrested in the past two days.
