Federal prosecutors have charged another person from our area with participating in the January 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, this time a man who said he traveled to Washington, D.C., with a former member of the NYPD (his brother) and the Proud Boys.

The FBI said Christopher Kelly, of New York, posted photos of himself on Facebook joining with the rioters.
