Two Teens Arrested in Foiled ISIS-Inspired Terror Plot Across US

Two Teens Arrested in Foiled ISIS-Inspired Terror Plot Across US

Federal officials have announced several arrests and charges related to a significant ISIS-inspired terror plot in the United States over the past 48 hours. According to reporting by ClickOnDetroit and coverage from ABC News, authorities apprehended two 19-year-old men—Tomas Jimenez-Guzel from New Jersey and Saed Ali Mirreh from Washington state—on charges of conspiring to provide material support to the Islamic State terrorist organization. Jimenez-Guzel faces an additional charge of attempting to provide material support. The suspects allegedly planned to travel abroad and join the Islamic State following the arrests of their associates in the Detroit area at the end of October.

Court documents cited by The Associated Press detail that both men accelerated their plans to flee the country after federal investigators arrested several people in Michigan who had been communicating with them online. The FBI said Jimenez-Guzel was detained as he tried to board a flight to Turkey at Newark airport, while Mirreh was arrested at his home in Kent, Washington. According to communications reviewed by authorities, the plotters had developed what the FBI described as “comprehensive plans” for travel and engagement with ISIS forces overseas.

Meanwhile, three other young men have already been charged in Michigan with conspiracy and the unlawful transfer of firearms and ammunition for a terror attack. Federal investigators discovered evidence in group chats that indicated the suspects had plans for a violent attack themed around Halloween, including repeated references to pumpkins and the use of pumpkin emojis. The FBI states that LGBTQ+ bars in suburban Detroit and Cedar Point amusement park in Ohio were scouted as potential targets. Separately, The Detroit News has reported that a 16-year-old boy is also in federal custody as part of this ongoing investigation.

Counterterrorism experts interviewed by 7 News Detroit emphasize that these types of investigations are ongoing across the country, with thousands of active counterterror probes underway on any given day. While the alleged plot did not proceed to execution, officials highlight the importance of ongoing vigilance and robust interagency cooperation in disrupting such threats before they can materialize.
