MAINE: Three teenagers who wanted to ‘die fighting for Allah’ are arrested for ‘planning to attack Chicago mosques and synagogue in the name of ISIS’
MARCH 28, 2022
Three teens from different states were planning mass murders at Chicago-area and Shia mosques and synagogues, all in the name of ISIS (Islamic State).
Daily Mail An 18-year-old Maine man and two other teens, one in Chicago and another in Kentucky, conspired to attack a Chicago mosque with homemade explosives this month, new court documents reveal – until the FBI unraveled the plot. The teens, agents said, concocted a scheme to massacre worshippers at the Shia mosque in the name of ISIS.
The recently unsealed federal filing alleges that Xavier Pelkey of Waterville and two teens, who were not named in court papers because they are juveniles, communicated through Instagram and other platforms to plot the attack.
Pelkey, who was using the pseudonym “Abdullah,” told the teens that he would buy guns, ammunition and had built a homemade explosive device to “get more people,” court papers state. He also told agents he ‘wanted to die fighting for Allah’ and then being shot by police. Feds also recovered an ISIS flag from Pelkey’s apartment, photos show.
