A former Michigan Army National Guard member is accused of trying to conduct a mass shooting on behalf of the terrorist group ISIS at a U.S. military base in Warren, Michigan.
Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed said the No. 19 official in Melvindale, Michigan, was arrested Wednesday after officials foiled a planned attack at U.S. Army tanks and Arsenal in Detroit.
According to the criminal lawsuit, he reportedly told two secret officials that his plan was to carry out a mass shooting at the base. Officials said in April 2025, the two undercover staff agreed to implement the SAID plan under the guidance of ISIS.
The alleged planned attacks allegedly provided ammunition and magazines, by flying the drone over it, trained secret officials on guns and how to build Molotov cocktails and instructed officials on how to get to the base and its targets.
He said he went to an area near the base and fired a drone after being arrested on May 13 (the date of the planned attack).
"The defendant is accused of planning a fatal assault on ISIS's U.S. military base, head of the Justice Department's national security department, said in a statement. "Thanks to the unremitting efforts of law enforcement, we foiled the attack before our lives. We will not hesitate to bring the full strength of the department to people looking for and prosecute those who try to harm us and protect all Americans."
The 19-year-old is accused of trying to provide material support to foreign terrorist organizations and distribute information related to the destructive device.
The alleged appearance is scheduled for its first trial Wednesday afternoon in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan. The U.S. lawyers program requires courts to hold in pretrial detention, citing his concerns about the dangers of the community and his will flee.
If convicted, say people of up to 20 years.
The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force is investigating the above cases.
