Grant posted pictures on his Twitter that his iPhone 5 has been jailbroken and it is running on Cydia. He did not provide any details on how he did it. But as of the moment, jailbreak for iPhone 5 is not yet released for public. But as you can see above, seeing a jailbroken iPhone 5 means it’s possible and sooner or later it will be rolled out to the public.
