Las Vegas Police and FBI Thwart “Alleged” ISIS Attack by 16-Year-Old Lone Actor
Las Vegas law enforcement, in collaboration with the FBI, successfully foiled an alleged terrorist attack orchestrated by a 16-year-old acting alone in support of ISIS.
The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, along with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force, arrested a 16-year-old suspect after he posted on social media that he was about to start, “lone wolf operations in Las Vegas against the enemies of Allah.”
In another post, the suspect is accused of writing, “I ask you to make Dua for victory. I am a supporter of the Islamic State, and I will make sure the Zionists in this city know it.”
In recent years the FBI has established a track record of “grooming” individuals to partake in radicalized activities only to arrest them later.
