A man is now behind bars after causing chaos in the office of Alina Habba, the Acting U. S. Attorney for New Jersey. The incident happened on Wednesday, and the suspect was caught thanks to the quick work of law enforcement.

Pamela Bondi, the U. S. Attorney General, shared the news on social media over the weekend. She made it clear that threatening or destroying offices of U. S. Attorneys won't be tolerated. Bondi thanked the police for their efforts but didn't reveal the suspect's identity.

Sources close to CBS News gave more details about what happened. The man initially tried to enter the building carrying a baseball bat. He was turned away. Later that same day, he came back without the bat. He asked to meet with Habba, but his request was denied. That's when he started smashing things in the waiting area before running off.

The New York Times was the first to report that the man had tried to enter Habba's office with the bat. Habba herself posted on social media, saying, "We got him. " She thanked Bondi and emphasized that federal partners won't stand for any intimidation or violence against law enforcement. She added, "Now justice will handle him. "

This incident raises questions about security measures in place for high-profile offices. It also highlights the importance of swift action by law enforcement to prevent such acts of violence and intimidation.
