A newly elected lawmaker from West Virginia was among the hundreds of people who stormed the Capitol building Wednesday. Republican Rep. Derrick Evans posted a now-deleted livestream video to Facebook that shows him moving through the building as people in Trump hats mill about.

“We’re in! We’re in!” he yells at one point.

Evans has posted a series of videos in recent days. In one video posted Wednesday morning, Evans can be heard saying “Stop the steal baby.”

“Are you here to support President Trump as well, sir?” he asks on demonstrator.

In a statement posted to Facebook Wednesday, Evans said he was on a bus back to West Virginia. Evans said he did not have “any negative interactions with law enforcement” or participate in any “destruction.”
