A grand jury in Washington, D.C., indicted an Alabama man on a slew of charges Tuesday after his pickup truck was found parked in front of the U.S. Capitol loaded with guns, as well gasoline-filled mason jars and other materials to assemble nearly a dozen Molotov cocktails. As rioters breached the building on Jan. 6, U.S. Capitol Police (USCP) officers simultaneously responded to reports of possible explosive devices in the area around the Capitol. The complaint said Coffman told officers that the mason jars contained melted Styrofoam and gasoline. A grand jury in D.C. on Tuesday indicted a second man, Mark Jefferson Leffingwell, on seven counts related to violence inside the Capitol. Also on Jan. 6, two pipe bombs were discovered at the offices for the Republican and Democratic national committees in D.C.
