QAnon conspiracy theorist accused in Atlanta FBI attack: report

Navy veteran Ervin Lee Bolling this week allegedly plowed his SUV into the FBI headquarters near Atlanta, Georgia, and Wired reports that he frequently shared conspiracy theories on multiple social media accounts, including some related to QAnon.

Among other things, Bolling reportedly posted shortly after the 2020 presidential election that he was "looking for a good militia to join" and also expressed support for conspiracy theories about the election being "stolen" from former President Donald Trump.

"Around the same time, social media accounts seemingly associated with Bolling repeatedly boosted QAnon content and interacted with QAnon promoters, including posting a link to a now-deleted QAnon-associated channel on YouTube," Wired adds. "On what’s believed to be Bolling’s Facebook account, there were various posts related to anti-vaccine memes as well."

It's not yet known that apparent belief in conspiracy theories drove Bolling to allegedly attack the FBI building.

However, there is past precedent for FBI buildings coming under attack from Trump supporters.

Shortly after the FBI executed a search warrant at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort to retrieve top-secret government documents he had stashed there, 42-year-old Trump supporter Ricky Shiffer brought a gun to an FBI office in Ohio and began opening fire there before he was eventually killed by law enforcement officials.
