A Washington D.C. police officer who was swarmed and beaten by pro-Trump rioters at the U.S. Capitol last week reflected on his harrowing experience.
"If it wasn't my job I would have done that for free. It was absolutely my pleasure to crush a white nationalist insurrection," Daniel Hodges told NBC News on Thursday. "I'm glad I was in a position to be able to help. We'll do it as many times as it takes."
Hodges was captured in a video being crushed in a doorway by a violent mob. He said they then stole his equipment and beat him.
"They ripped my mask off. Stole my equipment. Beat me up. Sprayed me with everything," he said.
