A Pennsylvania man who wildly hit and stabbed at officers guarding the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6 riots with metal and wooden poles and an officer’s helmet and riot shield is going to prison.

Joshua Lee Atwood, 31, was sentenced to 48 months — or four years — in prison by U.S. District Judge Randolph D.
