The FBI has arrested a suspect they believe planted pipe bombs in Washington, D.C., on the eve of Jan. 6, 2021.

The Justice Department announced the news on Thursday, five years after security cameras captured images of someone planting pipe bombs outside Democratic and Republican Party headquarters.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi explained, "Early this morning, Brian Cole junior was arrested and charged with placing the pipe bombs at the RNC and the DNC on January 5th, 2021." The bombs were discovered the same day as the riot at the U.S. Capitol building.

FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed, "We are dealing with an individual who was alleged to have made bombs. We cannot do this sort of takedown in haste because it endangers the lives of law enforcement."
