FBI says pipe bombs were planted night before the storming of the Capitol
(Worthy News) – The FBI revealed Friday that the pipe bombs found by investigators outside the headquarters for the Republican National Committee and the Democratic National Committee had been planted the night before the storming of the U.S. Capitol building.
The bureau said that it “has developed new information regarding the pipe bombs” discovered in the nation’s capital, saying that the as-yet-unknown suspect carried a backpack and placed one explosive at the RNC and another at the DNC between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Jan. 5, describing him as wearing a mask, a gray hooded sweatshirt, and yellow, black, and gray-colored Nike Air Max Speed Turf shoes. The FBI reward for information leading to the suspect’s arrest had been raised from $50,000 to $75,000 and has now grown to $100,000 as the bureau tries to figure out who did it.
Videos of the suspect apparently showing him in the process of planting the bombs the night before the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol were obtained by the Washington Post and published on Friday, with security cameras showing the suspect, matching photos released by the FBI, both carrying and wearing his backpack and walking through Rumsey Court toward an area behind the RNC and Capitol Hill Club, where an anonymous source told the outlet he went to plant the bomb. The video also shows him walking back and forth past row homes in the immediate vicinity, and a law enforcement official told the outlet the same suspect planted the bombs at the DNC, though the FBI has not said which explosive was planted first.
