Sparta Man Faces Charges After Capitol Riot

A Sparta man is looking at felony charges after federal prosecutors say he was inside the Capitol during the January 6th riot.

The Department of Justice announced charges against 37-year-old Charles Walters yesterday. Prosecutors say he destroyed some fencing, climbed onto the inaugural stage risers, and went inside the Capitol on January 6th. Court documents say Walters was identified from video of the day.

There are no allegations that he did any damage, or hurt anyone once inside the building.
