The FBI has released new information and video of the individual who planted pipe bombs outside the headquarters of both the Republican National Committee and the Democratic National Committee on the night before the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, the bureau announced Thursday, after nearly four years of investigation that has led to little in the way of substantive leads about the suspect's identity.

A video compilation produced by the FBI shows a new angle of the suspect placing one of the pipe bombs outside of the DNC headquarters just blocks from the Capitol, as well as an enhanced map showing the route the suspect walked that evening.

The video further includes a graphic showing the FBI's estimate of the suspect's height -- which agents have calculated is 5 feet 7 inches, and animation showing the specific pair of Nike shoes the person was wearing.

"We recognize that it's been nearly four years since we started investigating this case, and we have been helped considerably by tips from the public," FBI Washington Field Office Assistant Director in Charge David Sundberg said in an interview with ABC News. "Those tips have helped us further the investigation, but they have not, as of yet, allowed us to identify the suspect. But over the course of four years, allegiances can change, and people might have information they didn't think was important in the past, and that's why we are releasing new footage."

The FBI currently has a reward of $500,000 for anyone who provides information leading to the identification and arrest of the suspect, which they can submit over phone at 1-800-CALL-FBI or online at tips.fbi.gov.
