FL Pipe Bomb Sender Cesar Sayoc Sentenced To 20 Years Monday

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL. (THECOUNT)Cesar Sayoc, the man convicted of sending pipe bombs to multiple people and places around the United States, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison, a judge ordered Monday.

Sayoc, 56, was sentenced Monday in a New York courthouse.

Original Information: Cesar Sayoc has been detained at his Plantation, Fla. home in connection to the incidents, sources told PIX11 Friday. It is not yet known if he is suspected of sending all of the packages.

Federal authorities have arrested a man in connection to the suspected explosive packages discovered this week, according to multiple law enforcement sources.

The person of interest taken in custody has not yet been identified, but he is described as a 50s-something white male from New York now living in Florida. He is said to have an extensive criminal history for making “terrorist threats,” which means a threat against a person or property.

As the FBI confirmed an 11th suspicious package had been recovered in Florida, the New York Police Department is investigating a 12th package Friday.

Authorities could be seen securing a van for transport to a police facility.
