Man in Custody After Bomb Threat on Capitol Hill
The Capitol Police said that the man, who had parked his truck in front of the Library of Congress, surrendered peacefully after hours of negotiations.
-
Floyd Roy Roseberry from Grover, North Carolina, was taken into custody without incident. As we talked about earlier, Mr. Roseberry had parked a truck and was sitting in a truck for several hours in front of the Library of Congress, and he advised that he had explosives. And over the course of time, we tried to negotiate with Mr. Roseberry. We first started doing that with a whiteboard, just writing messages back and forth. We used a robot to get a telephone down to him, but he would not use the telephone. But shortly after we had delivered the telephone, he got out of the vehicle and surrendered. And the tactical units that were close by took him into custody without incident.
