NPR's Sam Greenglass says members of the House and Senate committees viewed a video of a second strike that killed two survivors of the initial attack.

At the briefing, lawmakers heard from Navy Admiral Frank Bradley, who ordered the strikes.

The FBI says the suspect, arrested in connection with pipe bombs placed outside the headquarters of the Republican and Democratic National Committee in Washington, D.C., is a 30-year-old man from Virginia.

He's identified as Brian Cole of Woodbridge, not far from the nation's capital.

He's facing explosives charges.

The devices were placed outside the buildings the night before the January 6th attack at the Capitol nearly five years ago.

FBI and Justice Department officials say a new analysis of evidence and data already collected led them to the suspect.
