FBI Makes Arrest in Jan. 6 Pipe Bomb Case; Congress Views Deadly Drug Interdiction Footage

The FBI has arrested a suspect in the long-running investigation into pipe bombs planted near the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. The arrest marks a major development in a case that has remained unsolved for over three years. Separately, members of Congress viewed previously unreleased video of a deadly maritime incident. The footage shows a U.S. Coast Guard vessel striking a suspected drug-smuggling boat in the Caribbean Sea. Authorities have not yet publicly named the pipe bomb suspect or detailed the specific charges. The two explosive devices were discovered outside the headquarters of the Democratic and Republican national committees before the Capitol riot. The boat-strike video was shown to lawmakers during a classified briefing. The incident, which resulted in fatalities, involved a high-speed interdiction, a tactic used to stop vessels suspected of illegal activity.
