"We are not a match"

One week after the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, Robert Chapman sent a message to a prospective love interest on the dating app Bumble to brag that he had taken part. "I did storm the capitol," he said, according to court documents. "I made it all the way to Statuary Hall." His potential date wrote back: "We are not a match." Then, the Bumble user contacted the police. Thanks to the tip, Chapman was arrested by the FBI on Thursday and charged with trespassing at the U.S. Capitol and disrupting official government operations by allegedly participating in the deadly riot. Chapman had also bragged on Facebook about being in the insurrection, the FBI said - and even changed his profile picture to a selfie in the riot.
