From Fox News: The FBI posted new surveillance video on X showing previously unseen footage of the suspect who planted pipe bombs near the Democratic and Republican National Committee offices on Jan. 5, 2021, as officials renewed a $500,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
“The FBI is still offering a $500,000 reward for information that helps identify the person who placed pipe bombs at the offices of the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee on January 5, 2021,” the FBI wrote on X. “As part of our ongoing investigation, we’re releasing an updated video of the subject, which includes previously unreleased footage, higher quality video, and longer clips of the subject’s movements.”
The new footage traces the suspect’s movements on the night before the Capitol riot, showing the individual carrying a backpack and planting bombs outside both party headquarters between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. before disappearing from view in Washington, D.C.
In the video, the FBI said the suspect is about 5 feet 7 inches tall and was seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt, black gloves and distinctive Nike Air Max Speed Turf shoes with a yellow logo while carrying the explosive devices in a backpack and covering their face with a mask.
The video tracks and narrates the suspect’s route and behaviors, with clear surveillance footage. However, the person’s face is not seen.
In their search to identify the person, investigators say they have followed up on hundreds of leads, conducted more than 1,000 interviews and reviewed thousands of video files.
Many people posting comments in response to the video are saying they believe the suspect is a female, based on the gait and mannerisms.
