What Happened:

• On Sunday, US officials arrested and charged two men for assaulting Capitol Hill officer Brian Sicknick with bear spray.

• Officials are not sure if the bear spray contributed to the officer's death although one of the theories is that a chemical irritant in the spray may have been ingested by officer Sicknick.

• The arrested men, George Tanios, 39, and Julian Khater, 32, will appear in federal court on Monday.

• These are the first arrests made by federal prosecutors that may have a link to any of the five deaths that occurred during or after the Capitol Hill riot.
