Ex-Salt Lake City police officer arrested for storming the U.S. Capitol

He’s facing multiple counts related to the Jan. 6 insurrection.

(Photo courtesy of U.S. Department of Justice) Authorities say this photo shows Michael Lee Hardin, 50, of Kaysville, near a bust of Abraham Lincoln in what appears to be the Capitol Crypt inside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Hardin was arrested April 2 by federal authorities, accused of taking part in the insurrection in the seat of the U.S. government. According to a Department of Justice document, the FBI received the photo from a tipster who knows Hardin — who got it from one of Hardin's relatives.
