According to recent reports, an Indiana man who was pardoned for the January 6 terrorist attack on our country’s capital by President Trump was shot and killed by police during a traffic check.
KTVU reported that the man, 43-year-old Matt Huttle, was involved in some kind of an altercation with the police. Police fatally injured him over the weekend.
There is still an investigation on to identify what caused the shooting; however, police say the suspect was in possession of a pistol during the traffic check. As of now, the probe has revealed no conclusions or insights, but the state police are looking into it, according to Jasper County’s sheriff.
Our condolences go out to the family of the deceased as any loss of life is traumatic to those who were close to Mr. Huttle
Matt Huttle was one of many Americans who stormed the nation’s capitol on January 6, 2021, in a terrorist attack that resulted in several deaths and numerous injuries. According to the article, he was inside the building for 16 minutes and captured footage while there, which resulted in his six-month imprisonment for entering a restricted area.
But, according to his defense counsel, Andrew Hemmer, Mr. Huttle did not go to the capitol with malicious intent, but rather to be a part of a historic occasion.
We should soon find out more about what caused his death during a routine stop.
