"These guys are not stupid, but they do reveal themselves prior to the incidents."

“Police said the 22-year-old suspect was ‘known to law enforcement.'”, but they haven't explained why, or how he was known to them.

“Police said the 22-year-old suspect was ‘known to law enforcement.'”, but they haven't explained why, or how he was known to them.

One legitimate reason for not saying, would be to avoid contaminating the jury pool with prejudicial information which would not be admissible at trial.

I read that he was first identified as a suspect via DNA traces on the weapon he left at the scene.

Which means his DNA is on file from a previous criminal investigation and explains his being “known” to the police.

Could have been the victim rather than the perpetrator?

"...but they haven't explained why, or how he was known to them..."

Maybe they're talking about 'known' in a biblical sense.

I saw one picture of him wearing all black with black combat boot style footwear, and a other with the stereotypical Antifa helmet and face covering.

My guess is law enforcement knows him from Antifa “mostly peaceful protests.
