John Douglas Wright, 54, joins a list of more than 400 people nationwide who face charges in the insurrection at the Capitol. Four informants separately told the FBI that Wright was in the mob that entered the building, and he admitted during a newspaper interview that he attended the event. Wright is being held without bond. In Cleveland, State Sen. Sandra Williams announced she will run for mayor of the city.

State Sen. Sandra Williams became the latest entrant in the Cleveland mayoral race Monday, joining a crowded contest that could give the city its first new mayor in 16 years.
Joined by family and supporters, Williams kicked off her campaign at the Harvard Community Services Center in the city’s Lee-Harvard neighborhood.
If elected, she would be Cleveland’s first Black woman mayor and only the second woman to hold the position.
“Our city needs a woman,” Williams told supporters Monday. “A woman who has a history of delivering real results to the city of Cleveland.”
