LAFAYETTE - A Louisiana man was among the latest arrests tied to last week's riots at the U.S. Capitol building. 

The U.S. Attorney's Office announced Vaughn A. Gordon of Lafayette was arrested Thursday. He was scheduled to make his first court appearance virtually that same afternoon.

Gordon reportedly spoke to The Acadian Advocate last week, admitting he was inside the Capitol for about two hours but maintained he was peaceful inside the building and did not vandalize anything.
