The FBI has made an arrest in connection with pipe bombs planted near the Republican and Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., on the eve of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Hill riot.

The arrest Thursday comes after a nearly five-year investigation to identify the bomber, who in a surveillance video appears to be a male in a hoodie, gloves and a face mask. 

A law enforcement official confirmed with Just the News that the suspect is Brian Cole Jr., a resident of the northern Virginia community of Woodbridge. Cole was arrested at his home. 

Cole worked for a bail bonds company run by his father that worked to free illegal migrants from ICE facilities, according to The Daily Wire, which added that they had sued the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security.

The RNC and DNC headquarters are blocks from the U.S. Capitol building.
