FBI Arrests Queens Man for Allegedly Plotting a Second Attack on U.S. Capitol

The FBI has arrested a Queens resident who is accused of plotting a second attack on Capitol Hill.

According to CBS2, 40-year-old Eduard Florea was taken into custody Tuesday at his home in Middle Village. Investigators say the father of two and self-described Proud Boy member had called for another armed invasion of the U.S. Capitol just a week after a mob of Trump supporters seiged the building, resulting in multiple deaths.

Florea allegedly created an online post stating he wanted to arm people to travel to Washington, D.C. The FBI has charged him as a convicted felon in possession of ammunition.

"They took him out, his wife, two children, and we saw weapons come out and some laptops," neighbor Larry Gianbalvo told the outlet. "I’m not a weapons expert. They weren’t small. They were fairly big."
