Young Pennsylvania man arrested over alleged ISIS-inspired mass attack plot targeting synagogues
FBI agents say investigators seized a rifle, 190 rounds of ammunition and knives after the suspect discussed poisoning food and other attack methods online.
A search of Kramer’s home in 2023, when he was still a minor, uncovered a video in which he pledged allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who was the leader of ISIS at the time.
The FBI tracked down the 21-year-old and arrested him after he was armed with a semi-automatic rifle, magazines and ammunition. According to the investigation documents, he was spreading ISIS propaganda and was looking for ricin or cyanide to put in food and drinks. Authorities clarified: No specific synagogue was targeted.
