FBI Arrests Pentagon leak suspect Jack Teixeiar

The FBI has arrested a 21-year-old member of the Massachusetts Air National Guard on suspicion of leaking hundreds of US intelligence documents.

Jack Teixeria is accused of uploading a tranche of classified material on the US's assessment of the war in Ukraine, as well as sensitive information on its allies, to an online gaming chat group.

FBI agents on Thursday swarmed Mr Teixeira's North Dighton, Massachusetts home and heavily armed tactical agents took a man wearing a T-shirt and shorts into custody outside the property.
