FBI releases new information about Jan. 6 pipe bomb suspect

Almost four years after two pipe bombs were placed near the headquarters of the Republican National Committee and the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., the FBI says it is renewing its efforts to track down a suspect by releasing new video of the individual placing one of the bombs near the DNC.

Almost four years after two pipe bombs were placed near the headquarters of the Republican National Committee and the Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., the FBI says it is renewing its efforts to track down a suspect by releasing new video of the individual placing one of the bombs near the DNC.

The FBI, which still has no suspects and has not determined a motive for the crimes, also announced Thursday that it estimates the suspect to be approximately 5 feet, 7 inches tall.

A reward of up to $500,000 is available for information leading to the suspect’s arrest and conviction.

The announcement came just hours after congressional Republicans released a report lamenting the fact that the FBI had not yet identified a suspect.

"Despite its initial efforts, the FBI has yet to identify the suspect and has refused to provide the Subcommittees with additional information about these investigative leads," the interim staff report released Thursday by the House Administration and Judiciary committees said.
