A Unionville man is among those suspected of storming the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, authorities say. 

Ronald Colton “Cole” McAbee, 27, of Holly Court in Unionville was arrested on eight federal charges Tuesday, said the U.S. Attorney’s Middle District of Tennessee office in Nashville. 

Charges against McAbee include assaulting, resisting or impeding certain officers inflicting bodily injury and entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly or dangerous weapon. 

McAbee is one of seven men from around the nation accused of knocking a Washington, D.C police officer to the ground and repeatedly attacking him. 

Further details have not been released by the court. 

McAbee made his first court appearance Tuesday in Nashville. He is one of 17 people from Tennessee arrested in the Capitol rioting.
