“A California man who stormed the Capitol during the Jan. 6 insurrection was arrested after his Uber driver tipped off the FBI,” Axios reports.
“Jerry Daniel Braun allegedly told the Uber driver during a trip to his hotel on Jan. 6, 2021 that he tore down a barricade at the Capitol. The encounter was recorded by the driver’s dashboard-mounted camera; the footage ultimately allowed the FBI to track him down.”
