Original Note:
The NBC article reports that a Trump supporter was arrested and charged, not convicted, of firing the first gunshots. That doesn't make it "official." It's an accusation, not a conviction. Calling it "official" is misleading. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/trump-supporter-charged-firing-gun-jan-6-capitol-attack-rcna142538
