Washington state man arrested in D.C. neighborhood where Obamas live

A Washington state man connected to the Jan. 6 insurrection was arrested Thursday in a D.C. neighborhood where former President Barack Obama lives, according to the Associated Press.

Records show that Taylor Taranto, 37, lives in Pasco, although an NBC News report says social media indicates that he has been recently living in a van by the Washington, D.C., jail.

Taranto was found with weapons and materials to create an explosive device, though one had not been built, law enforcement officials told the AP.

According to the Tri-City Herald, Taranto was a webmaster for the Republican Party in Franklin County, in southwestern Washington state, where Pasco is located.
