Pardoned Jan. 6 Defendant Killed in Police Shooting
Matthew Huttle, a 42-year-old man pardoned for his participation in the January 6th Capitol riot, was fatally shot by a Jasper County sheriff’s deputy during a traffic stop. The shooting followed an altercation in which Huttle allegedly resisted arrest and possessed a firearm. An Indiana State Police investigation is underway, and the deputy is on paid administrative leave. Huttle had previously pleaded guilty to entering a restricted building during the riot and received a presidential pardon earlier this month.
