Larry Rendell Brock Jr, the Grapevine man facing federal charges for his role in the riot at the U.S. Capitol last week, was released from custody Thursday after a prosecutor asserted in court earlier in the day that the retired Air Force officer should be detained as a threat to the public claiming he carried plastic zip-tie handcuffs in the riot because he intended to "take hostages."
Larry Brock was arrested Sunday in Texas after being photographed on the Senate floor during the deadly riot wearing a helmet and heavy vest and carrying plastic zip-tie handcuffs.
