No Nebraskans currently among many Washington arrests

While numerous arrests have been reported in connection to the Wednesday riot in Washington, there have been no reports of any Nebraskans detained for storming the Capitol.

Individuals from over 16 states have been taken into custody by Washington, DC police.

Among those states with arrests are two Nebraska neighbors, Wyoming and Colorado.

Federal, state and local authorities continue to scour video sources and the internet to identify further suspects.

At least 23 people arrested in the Wednesday riot. A DC Superior Court judge released them after they appeared in court to face charges. Those charges range from violating curfew set by Washington mayor Muriel Bowser to more serious charges like carrying a gun without a license and assault on a police officer.

All the defendants pleaded not guilty. Many of them were from states as far away as Oregon.

The judge ordered them not to return to Washington until their next court appearance on June 10th. Meanwhile, four other men became the first to face federal charges, also appearing in court on Thursday. 

The top federal prosecutor says to expect more charges as the intensive investigation continues.
