Isn't Congress in session? This idiot didn't need to surrender, they couldn't arrest him while Congress is in session (or while he is traveling to or from a session).
Article I, Section 6;
The Senators and Representatives shall receive a compensation for their services, to be ascertained by law, and paid out of the treasury of the United States. They shall in all cases, except treason, felony and breach of the peace, be privileged from arrest during their attendance at the session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any speech or debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other place
I guess the charges are felonies...the OP doesn't say.
