A U.S. special forces soldier involved in the military operation that captured Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro was arrested on Thursday after allegedly betting on Maduro's removal from office before news of the raid was made public, a law enforcement source told CBS News.

Federal investigators believe the soldier made bets of more than $33,000 on the prediction market Polymarket within hours of President Trump's announcement in January that Maduro had been captured, the source said. The bets hit and resulted in winnings of more than $409,000.

A Justice Department spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment from CBS News.

This is a developing story and will be updated.
