Cesar Sayoc, 56, was arrested in Florida on federal charges for allegedly mailing at least 14 pipe bombs to prominent critics of US President Donald Trump.
Authorities identified Sayoc, a part-time deliveryman, using fingerprint and DNA evidence; his van was found covered in pro-Trump and anti-Democrat imagery.
The packages, containing devices described as potentially dangerous, were intercepted before reaching high-profile targets including former President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, causing no injuries.
The FBI warned that more packages might still be in transit, with the incident significantly escalating political tensions ahead of the contentious Nov. 6 elections.
