FBI arrests Proud Boys member who disappeared days before sentencing over role in Jan. 6

The FBI has arrested a member of the Proud Boys who went missing just before he was set to be sentenced for his role in the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, according to a spokesperson for the Collier County Sheriff’s Office.

“We can confirm the arrest of Christopher Worrell,” the spokesperson told ABC News in a statement Thursday evening. “The FBI arrested him and the Collier County Sheriff’s Office assisted.”

Worrell, a 52-year-old from Naples, Florida, went missing in August just before he was going to be sentenced for several felonies he was convicted on over his conduct during the Jan. 6 riot.
