A set on Jan 5 and another set at the Capitol?

I have only heard about the pipe bombs that were placed by a person on the evening of J5 shown on a video that was widely publicized.

I thought I heard from the J6 Select Committee that there were bombs placed in the Capitol.

Can anyone out there clear this up for me?

Between 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) on January 5, 2021, an unknown individual placed two pipe bombs in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, D.C. One pipe bomb was placed ​in an alley behind the headquarters of the Republican National Committee (RNC), located at 310 First Street Southeast, and the other was placed next to a park bench near the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), located at 430 South Capitol Street Southeast #3.

The unknown individual wore a face mask, glasses, gloves, a grey hooded sweatshirt, and black and light grey Nike Air Max Speed Turf shoes with a yellow logo. The individual carried a ​backpack.

Some of the components of the devices include 1x8-inch threaded galvanized pipes, a kitchen timer, and homemade black powder.
