The FBI stopped an ISIS-linked terror plot set for Ferndale, Michigan, during the Halloween weekend, the Justice Department announced today.
A federal criminal complaint filed in the Eastern District of Michigan accuses two residents of Dearborn — a seething, buzzing hive of hundreds of thousands of Muslims — of planning the attack with three co-conspirators.
Agents arrested two “U.S. citizens,” Mohmed Ali and another identified only as “Person 1” because he is a juvenile. On Friday, agents executed search warrants and turned up AR-15-style rifles and almost 2,000 rounds of ammunition.

The complaint calls Majed Mahmoud a “co-conspirator,” and includes two more unnamed co-conspirators.
In August and September, Ali purchased a shotgun, an AR-15-style rifle, and “multiple firearm accessories, including a forced reset trigger that allows a shooter to increase the rate of fire in a semiautomatic weapon,” the complaint continues:
MAHMOUD also purchased an AR-15 style rifle in September 2025, as well as multiple firearms accessories. Then in October 2025, MAHMOUD purchased over 1,600 rounds of ammunition that could be used in the AR-15 style rifles he and ALI had purchased.
Throughout September and October, those three and co-conspirators 4 and 5 practiced shooting the firearms at a gun range “to develop their firearms skills in furtherance of an attack”…
