Prosecutors allege that Williams participated in violent confrontations with law enforcement as part of a mob, and was recorded on police body camera footage pulling bike racks from police and striking an officer on the head, according to the complaint.
He was also allegedly seen on open-source video lunging at an officer who was “deploying spray to prevent rioters from taking one of the bike racks” being used to hold back the crowd, the document says. Williams later “grabbed and pushed two officers” as rioters were trying to shove past police lines, according to the complaint.
