The FBI has taken a man named Mohamud into custody following an investigation into an alleged plot to carry out a mass shooting at the Mall of America in Minnesota. According to federal reports, the suspect expressed his intentions during the month of July.

Authorities allege that Mohamud specifically targeted the Mall of America, citing the religious background of the mall's owners as a primary motivation. Investigators state that the suspect articulated a desire to kill between 30 and 60 people, explicitly stating an intent to target non-Muslims during the proposed attack. The arrest follows an investigation into the suspect's activities and statements regarding his support for ISIS. The case remains under federal review as officials continue to assess the scope of the alleged threat and the suspect's connections to extremist ideologies.
