After an arrest in September, a Meadville man has entered a guilty plea for his role in the Capitol riots.
32-year-old Mikhail Edward Slye was charged with a felony during the breach of the Capitol building on January 6th.
Department of Justice officials say Slye used a bike rack barricade to intentionally trip an officer of the U.S. Capitol Police who then fell down stairs and suffered hand, wrist, and lower body injuries.
Slye then allegedly entered the Capitol two different times and moved through the Crypt area for over 30 minutes.
He’s facing up to eight years in prison when sentencing takes place in April.
