The FBI continues to seek information about the individual who planted pipe bombs near the RNC and DNC headquarters in Washington, D.C. just hours before the January 6th insurrection. New video footage and updated details, including a height estimate and reward offer, have been released.
The FBI continues its hunt for the individual responsible for planting pipe bombs near the Republican National Committee ( RNC ) and Democratic National Committee ( DNC ) headquarters in Washington, D.C. in January 2021. The FBI Washington Field Office has released previously unseen video footage showing the suspect placing one of the bombs near the DNC .
Additionally, updated details have been provided, estimating the suspect's height at approximately 5 feet, 7 inches and offering a reward of up to $500,000 for information leading to their arrest and conviction. The bombs, which failed to detonate, were discovered hours before the January 6th insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. The suspect planted the devices in the Capitol Hill area, at 310 First St. SE (RNC headquarters) and 430 South Capitol St. SE, #3 (DNC headquarters), between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. While no injuries occurred, the bombs' placement near residential and commercial areas close to the U.S. Capitol posed a serious risk to innocent bystanders. David Sundberg, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI Washington Field Office, highlighted the extensive investigative work undertaken in the case. 'Over the past four years, a dedicated team of FBI agents, analysts, data scientists, and law enforcement partners has visited more than 1,200 residences and businesses, conducted more than 1,000 interviews, reviewed approximately 39,000 video files, and assessed more than 600 tips,' he stated. Despite these efforts, the suspect's identity remains elusive. Sundberg is now urging the public to revisit the FBI's Seeking Information webpage, which now features new video footage, updated maps of the suspect's route, and clear images of the suspect's distinctive Nike Air Max Speed Turf shoes. 'We urge anyone who may have previously hesitated to come forward, or who may not have realized they had important information, to contact the FBI,' Sundberg said
