(Blue Springs) A Missouri man and two from Kansas are facing federal charges in connection with the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The FBI says agents arrested 44-year-old Louis Colon of Blue Springs, Missouri and William Chrestman and Christopher Kuehne of Olathe, Kansas.

Prosecutors say the three were among the first to overpower officers and crash through metal barricades.

They were also reportedly seen on video trying to prevent metal doors from closing as police attempted to secure the area.

Colon is charged with civil disorder, obstruction of an official proceeding, threatening to assault a federal law enforcement officer, knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.
