WASHINGTON — At least one man has been arrested in connection with more than a dozen suspicious packages sent to government addresses on the Eastern Seaboard, most of them in the nation's capital, the FBI said Tuesday.
Tranh Cong Phan, 43, was arrested at his home in the Seattle area on Monday. He is scheduled to make his initial court appearance on Tuesday afternoon.
He is believed to have sent a total of 12 packages to military and government addresses in the Washington, D.C., metro area, officials said.

He’s “the last of the Viet Cong.”

Was this a surprise perp for the Feds?
Was the fellow on the payroll or an informant?
Here is the link to yesterday’s ‘breaking news’ thread on the DC bombs your new article refers to.

No doubt upset about the recent decision not to let Tranhs into the military
Notice, no name no reason. Another FBI cover up like Vegas and Travis AFB? We need our guns if the FBI can’t protect us.
Well that was quick. I wonder if his FBI handler had him put a return address on the packages and pay with a credit card.
Gee, just another “regular American”
That’s a very Viet name
The name given in the article is “Tranh Cong Phan.”
Upset about tariffs on China?
Sounds Vietnamese or Thai. Not necessarily a leftist, so don’t get ahead of the facts.
Either Viet or Cambodian. Most likely Vietnamese as you say.
LOL. Post of the day.
Nguyen Bloa Yup
that’s what I thought
In 2011, Phan was arrested and charged with unlawful possession of a handgun following a mental-health call to his South Everett home, court records show.
“The defendant made some bizarre statements to (deputies), which gave the deputies concern about the defendant’s mental health and safety,” according to a probable-cause affidavit filed in Snohomish County Superior Court at the time.
Deputies took Phan into protective custody under an involuntary mental-health commitment. At the time, deputies confiscated a loaded .357-caliber handgun from Phan’s backpack, the affidavit states.
“Deputies later learned that the defendant was convicted of Second Degree Assault in 1990 and is prohibited by law from possession (of) firearms,” the affidavit states.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Me Chinese, me play joke!
