MONROE, N.J. -- The FBI manhunt for Gregory Yetman, a New Jersey man wanted in connection with the Jan. 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol, ended when he surrendered to authorities on Friday. 

Police said Yetman, 47, turned himself in without incident at the Monroe Township Police Department and was in FBI custody. 

According to authorities, Yetman fled his home in Helmetta on Wednesday when FBI agents arrived to serve him with a federal warrant. Police said he hopped a fence, then ran toward train tracks and into a wooded area.

Armed FBI agents wearing camouflage, members of the Joint Terrorism Task Force and search dogs were then seen outside a community center in Helmetta for several hours. 

The FBI had released pictures that the agency said show Yetman at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 when hundreds stormed the complex.   

At the time, Yetman was a military police sergeant in the New Jersey National Guard, authorities said. The New Jersey National Guard confirmed he served for about 12 years until March 2022.   

Yetman was charged with various felony offenses, including assaulting officers, obstruction of law enforcement during a civil disorder, entering a restricted area and engaging in physical violence.
