Arrest Made In Alleged Plot To Bomb New York Stock Exchange, FBI Says

The FBI arrested and charged a Florida resident for an alleged plot to bomb the New York Stock Exchange, forcing a “reboot” of the U.S. government.

Harun Abdul-Malik Yener, 30, of Coral Springs, Florida, was charged with attempting to use an explosive device to damage or destroy a building used in interstate commerce.

“The FBI received a tip about bomb-making schematics stored in an unlocked storage unit. An affidavit reveals that Yener described his plan as creating destruction akin to a ‘small nuke,’ intending to kill everyone inside the building and devastate the surrounding area,” Rawsalerts wrote.

“He allegedly planned to detonate an improvised explosive device outside the NYSE the week before Thanksgiving. Agents report that Yener’s motive was to trigger a ‘reset’ of the U.S. government,” the post added.

From the Associated Press:

In the last month, he had rewired two-way radios so that they could work as remote triggers for an explosive device and planned to wear a disguise when planting the explosives, according to court documents.

Yener had his first court appearance Wednesday afternoon and will be detained while he awaits a trial.

He was known to post videos on a YouTube channel about making explosives and fireworks from household items, and had a history of making threats, according to court documents. He was fired last year from a restaurant in Coconut Creek, Florida, after his former supervisor said he threatened to “go Parkland shooter in this place.”

Per NBC News:

After they got Yener’s permission, FBI agents searched the storage unit in early March and found spiral-bound notebooks with drawings of land mines, explosives, missiles and other improvised explosive devices, according to the complaint.

Yener told agents at the time that he was creating “rockets” with very “volatile” chemical mixtures that would explode if they were mixed incorrectly, the complaint says. He also claimed he was recruited over Facebook Messenger to join ISIS overseas but ultimately decided against it because he believed the terrorist group would not succeed in achieving its objectives, the complaint says.

Near the end of the interview, it says, he told the FBI agents he was waiting for the right moment to take action within the U.S. “I am just waiting for some kind of hole to open up and I can go, ah, there it is—I’ll know it when I see it,” he said, according to the complaint.

Armed with a search warrant, agents returned to the unit a few days later and discovered “bombmaking sketches, numerous watches with timers, electronic circuit boards, and other electronics” that “could be used for constructing explosive devices,” the complaint says.
