A Butler County man is facing a terrorism-related charge, accused of planning an attack in support of ISIS.
The FBI says agents arrested Jonathan Kramer outside a Cranberry hotel over the weekend.
Kramer, about 20-years-old and living with his parents in Valencia, allegedly sympathized with the Islamic militant group and was charged in federal court with illegally buying a gun as part of a terrorist plot.
Agents say they found a semi-automatic rifle, magazines, a scope and boxes of ammo in Kramer's hotel room.
The criminal complaint also contends Kramer has a lengthy online history showing support for ISIS.
He was as a juvenile in 2023 for “his role in a plot to commit a mass casualty incident.”
“As Americans observed the 25th anniversary of 9/11, our law enforcement partners were working to protect our country from the continued threat of terrorism,” said Attorney General Todd Blanche. “Their outstanding work thwarted this alleged attack before innocent lives could be lost. The Department of Justice will relentlessly pursue anyone who seeks to terrorize the American people and bring them to justice.”
