Daniel Ball, a Florida man involved in the January 6 Capitol riot, remains in custody on separate federal gun charges despite receiving a pardon from President Trump. The charges stem from a search warrant executed during the investigation of his riot activities, where authorities found he possessed a firearm, prohibited due to prior felony convictions. His attorney intends to argue for dismissal based on the circumstances surrounding the indictment, which was only issued after the pardon. Ball's violent actions during the Capitol riot previously included assaulting officers and using explosives.
Ball, of Homosassa, Florida, remains in custody despite a presidential pardon related to the Jan. 6 riot, facing new federal gun charges.
The gun charge comes from evidence discovered during an earlier search warrant executed in relation to the January 6, 2021 insurrection case.
