The Texas Department of Public Safety on Tuesday arrested Keegan Dalton Godsey, 23, of Austin, for allegedly causing damage to the Texas Capitol during a May 30 protest.
Godsey, who authorities say was arrested without incident, was charged with felony criminal mischief, riot and interference with public duties, and booked into the Travis County Jail. His was the first arrest related to damage to the Capitol and grounds that occurred May 30.
DPS said Godsey was one of a number of protesters who “intentionally damaged†the Capitol building, monuments and fixtures, as well as DPS patrol vehicles. Special agents say they reviewed hundreds of hours of video from various platforms, surveillance camera footage, law enforcement databases and open source information to identify Godsey.
