This 21-year-old was arrested by the FBI on Thursday at his family home in the village of Dighton, Massachusetts.

US officials have told CBS News that the name of the main suspect in the leak of US confidential defense and intelligence documents is Jack Teixeira.

US officials said he will be charged under the Espionage Act of 1917, which considers the physical or electronic transfer of confidential defense information a crime.

Shortly before, the New York Times reported that the operator of a video game chat group where the documents were leaked had a similar name.
