A Florida man has been arrested and charged in connection with mailing at least 13 suspected explosive devices that targeted high-profile Democrats including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton and the cable network CNN, U.S. officials said Friday.
“The suspect has been captured -- great job -- and is now in federal custody,” President Donald Trump said at a rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Friday night. “These terrorist actions must be prosecuted and punished to the full extent of the law, we all know that.”
