Acting US Attorney Michael Sherwin said the homemade bombs found during the riots near the Capitol were real. Timers were also installed on the pumps.
This was announced by the correspondent of the NBC news channel Tom Winter. On twitter.
The prosecutor noted that law enforcement officers still do not know if the bombs were a distraction mechanism, if they were installed with the aim of hurting someone, or perhaps both.
We will remember that last week the protest of supporters of the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump, turned into riots and a breakthrough on Capitol Hill. During the riots, law enforcement officers found two homemade bombs, one of them near the Republican Party office.
Also, later, US police said that after the riots, a car with bombs and weapons was found near the Capitol. The owner of the car participated in the assault on the Capitol.
We add that the FBI is verifying information about the intentions to kill congressmen during the riots in Washington.
