US Capitol riots Updates

A Florida man has become only the second person so far to enter a guilty plea for taking part in the storming of the US Capitol building.

Paul Hodgkins, 38, entered the Senate chamber wearing a Trump T-shirt and carrying a "Trump 2020" flag.

The crane operator admitted obstructing an official proceeding of Congress.

Hodgkins, of Tampa, is one of at least 450 people charged in the riot. Prosecutors meanwhile dropped charges against another defendant.

A group of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol on 6 January, temporarily suspending lawmakers' certification of Joe Biden as the winner of last November's presidential election.

Hodgkins had been facing five charges, including disorderly conduct in a Capitol building, but his lawyers managed to negotiate it down to one charge.
