From the fbi.gov website:
Reward:
The FBI is offering a reward of up to $1,000 for each unknown suspect for information leading to their identification, arrest, and conviction.
Details:
The Federal Bureau of Investigation's Washington Field Office, in conjunction with the United States Park Police (USPP), is seeking the public's assistance in identifying several individuals who are responsible for the destruction of federal property and/or the assault of federal officers at Union Station in Washington, D.C.
On July 24, 2024, at approximately 3 p.m., a group of individuals, including suspects #1, #2, and #3, vandalized and damaged government property at Union Station located at 24 Columbus Circle NE in Washington, D.C. Additionally, suspect #4 attacked a USPP officer who was attempting to arrest a protestor.
The FBI does not open investigations based solely on First Amendment activity. Destruction of government property, obstruction of justice, and impeding law enforcement are federal crimes. Damage or attempted damage to federal property that exceeds $1,000 is a felony offense. The USPP estimates the cost to repair the damage to the area will exceed $11,000.
Submit a Tip:
If you have any information concerning these individuals or this incident, please contact the FBI Washington Field Office at (202) 278-2000. You may also contact your local FBI office, the nearest American Embassy or Consulate, or you can submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov.

Thoughts? I am placing this case in the national media section since this was and is a national news story. And once again, in most cases you have the right to protest, but you also don't have the right to commit violence as a result of protest.
