FBI arrests Pennsylvania man for alleged ISIS-inspired mass attack plot

FBI agents arrested Jonathan Hunter Kramer of Valencia, Pennsylvania on September 12, 2026, after he allegedly assembled a semiautomatic rifle, ammunition, and other gear in preparation for a mass-casualty attack expressing support for ISIS. Kramer was charged with receiving a firearm and ammunition knowing or having reasonable cause to believe they would be used in a federal crime of terrorism. He had been on the FBI's radar since 2023, when he was investigated as a minor for a mass-casualty plot and possession of child sexual abuse material.
