A man convicted and sentenced to nine months in jail for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol was arrested in Whistler, B.C., four years to the day after the riot.

Rather than reporting to jail in the U.S., Antony Vo headed north to seek asylum in Canada.

He told CBC News last week that he was hoping U.S. president-elect Donald Trump would pardon him.

Is he one of the people that did physical damage to the building or is he one of the people that stayed away from the building and never touched the property but got arrested anyways?

He was in the building and had several charges.
