An armed man with an outstanding warrant related to the Jan. 6 invasion of the U.S. Capitol was arrested Thursday after running toward the Obamas’ Washington, D.C., home.
CBS News said Taylor Taranto, 37, was in possession of “multiple weapons” and bomb-making materials when he was apprehended Thursday. The explosive device was reportedly comparable to a Molotov cocktail, though it was unassembled.
According to the outlet, the Seattle man previously made threats against a public figure not specified by law enforcement sources. Specifics about the suspect’s outstanding warrant were also not reported.
