OCEANSIDE - A Camp Pendleton Marine is now behind bars in connection with the January 6th Capitol riot.
Corporal Micah Coomer was arrested by the FBI near the base in Oceanside Tuesday after federal officials charged him and two other active-duty Marines with disorderly conduct and entering restricted grounds. Agents were able to confirm Coomer's participation in the insurrection through posts and conversations over Instagram, where he apparently told another user that everything is the U.S. is corrupt and that he was waiting for second Civil War to begin.
Two other Marines were also arrested this week including one at Fort Meade in Maryland and one at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. All three worked in intelligence units, according to Military.com
So far at least 12 service members have been charged with participating in the insurrection.
