Patrick Montgomery

Patrick Montgomery, 51, of Littleton, Colorado, arrived at the Capitol with co-defendants Brady Knowlton and Gary Wilson and breached the restricted perimeter during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, then engaged in a physical altercation with a police officer over control of his baton, telling him to "quit doing your job and be an American," and kicked the officer in the chest with his boot; the FBI arrested him on 1/17/2021. He was convicted in May 2024 of felony obstruction of an official proceeding and assaulting, resisting, or impeding officers, though the obstruction count was later dismissed following the Supreme Court's Fischer ruling. He was sentenced on 10/31/2024 to 37 months of incarceration, 36 months of supervised release, and a $100 special assessment.
