On these 9 days, police in DC arrested more people than they did during the Capitol siege Sixty-one: That’s the number of arrests Washington, DC, police made the day rioters laid siege to the Capitol in protest of President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory. More have been arrested since, and several jurisdictions are now involved in hunting down the supporters of President Donald Trump who invaded and ransacked the Capitol during a joint session of Congress to affirm Biden’s win. Some are already facing federal charges.
