A Proud Boy who led the US Capitol riot by smashing his way into the complex with a police shield before he filmed himself puffing a celebratory cigar has been sentenced to 10 years in prison.
Dominic Pezzola, a 46-year-old former US Marine, fought with officers during the raid on Congress on 6 January 2021.
He was convicted of assaulting police and obstructing an official proceeding.
But once the prison term had been handed down and the judge had left the room, Pezzola shouted: "Trump won!"
