Indiana man pardoned for Jan. 6 crimes killed in traffic stop shooting by deputy
Matthew Huttle, 42, pleaded guilty for entering the U.S. Capitol and was on supervised release prior to President Donald Trump's pardon last week.
An Indiana man who was recently pardoned for his participation in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot was shot and killed during a traffic stop by a sheriff's deputy on Sunday.
Matthew Huttle, 42, was involved in a traffic stop at 4:15 p.m. on Sunday by a deputy with the Jasper County Sheriffs Department, according to a press release. Huttle allegedly resisted arrest during the traffic stop and was found to have a firearm on him.
"An altercation took place between the suspect and the officer, which resulted in the officer firing his weapon and fatally wounding the suspect," the release said.
Jasper County Sheriff Patrick Williamson requested an investigation be conducted by the Indiana State Police. The deputy involved was placed on paid administrative leave in accordance with department policy, Williamson said.
