According to the United States Capitol Police, Leonard Guthrie was arrested for unlawful entry as he climbed the Capitol steps shortly before 2pm Wednesday.
Guthrie described himself as a preacher when talking with a reporter from Fox 29 News on Thursday. He admitted to breaking the law by entering the Capitol building grounds, but insists he didn't take part in any violence.
"I'm not a violent person....I walked up to the Capitol because that’s where voices needed to be heard. This was more than a rally. This was America - people coming from all over American to be heard."
