A man who was filmed smashing windows in the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, at the spot where Ashli Babbitt was fatally shot, was arrested Saturday after a family member tipped off the FBI, federal prosecutors said.

Zachary Jordan Alam was arrested in Pennsylvania and faces charges of assault on a federal officer with a dangerous or deadly weapon, destruction of government property, unlawful entry in a restricted building without lawful authority, and violent entry and disorderly conduct, a federal criminal complaint said.

In photos and videos cited by the affidavit, an FBI officer said Alam was seen breaching Capitol grounds “wearing a dark colored jacket, a black and tan fur-lined hat, and a black shirt with a yellow and red label on the front.”

Video footage showed Alam — with his mask pulled down — pushing past security personnel and screaming “F--- the blue!” before reaching the doors of the Speaker’s Lobby, which leads to the House Chamber, the affidavit said.

There, Alam grabbed a black helmet from another rioter and used it to smash the glass panes, shattering the windows, according to the document. Shortly after, Trump supporter Ashli Babbitt tried to climb through the shattered glass and was fatally shot by a Capitol police officer, the affidavit said.

Alam was arrested after an anonymous family member contacted the FBI National Threat Operations Center on Jan. 14, the court document said.

The FBI has arrested a Pennsylvania woman accused of using a bullhorn to direct rioters during last month's Capitol siege, federal prosecutors said.

Rachel Powell turned herself in to the agency Thursday night before she was taken to the Butler County Prison about 1 a.m. Friday, NBC affiliate WPXI reported.

Hours earlier, the FBI secured a search warrant to raid her home in Sandy Lake, about 65 miles north of Pittsburgh, the station reported. Agents searched her house to no avail before she surrendered later in the day.

Powell, a single mother of eight, faces charges of obstruction, depredation of government property, restricted building or grounds with a dangerous weapon, restricted building or grounds and violent entry or disorderly conduct, prosecutors said.

Michael Engle, Powell's lawyer, did not immediately respond to a request for comment Friday.

"F*** the blue!"

...A single mother of eight...

These don't sound like lines from a MAGA resume to me.
