The suspect who was arrested in Florida on Friday in connection with this week’s bomb scares is Cesar Sayoc, according to multiple reports citing law enforcement officials.

NBC News and Reuters were first to report on the suspect’s identity. CNN later confirmed the suspect’s identity, reporting that Sayoc, 56, lives in Hollywood, Florida.

He was taken into custody in Plantation, Florida, where authorities also seized a van that appeared to be covered in decals and stickers of President Trump.
