Fox News correspondent David Spunt joins ‘Special Report’ with more from the Justice Department.
The FBI has released four posters showing dozens of people wanted for storming Capitol Hill earlier this week in an unprecedented attack on the nation’s capital.
The FBI’s Washington Field Office early Friday morning released 40 photos of people who illegally broke into the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday afternoon while Congress was tallying Electoral College votes that would confirm Joe Biden as president-elect.
Dozens of people, some armed with guns, roamed the halls of the federal building, smashed or dismantled property, and barged into House and Senate leaders’ chambers. Meanwhile, Hill staffers and lawmakers were under lockdown or hid behind chairs or under tables.

Police have also announced a reward of up to $50,000 for information that leads them to the person they believe planted two pipe bombs at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Republican National Committee (RNC) headquarters on Wednesday.
Benjamin Phillips, a 50-year-old Pennsylvania man; Rosanne Boylan, a 34-year-old Georgia woman; and Kevin Greeson, a 55-year-old from Alabama, died after suffering "medical emergencies" related to the breach, law enforcement officials said Thursday during a news conference.
