FBI Releases New Footage of Suspect Linked to Pipe Bombs at RNC and DNC Headquarters
The FBI on Tuesday released new footage of a suspect linked to the pipe bombs left at the Republican National Committee (RNC) and Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters ahead of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
The newly released video appears to show the suspect walking with a backpack on a sidewalk and to areas outside the DNC and RNC where authorities later found the bombs. The footage shows four scenes spanning between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. on Jan. 5, when officials believe the bombs were planted.
The FBI said it is hoping the video will help someone recognize the person’s “gait, body language, or mannerisms” to help identify them.
The suspect, who is wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and a mask, is first shown along South Capitol Street, where he briefly sets down a bag as a man passes who is walking a dog.
