8 indicted in thwarted attack on UFC's WH event

A federal grand jury in Ohio indicted eight men on Thursday on murder and terrorism conspiracy charges for their alleged roles in a thwarted drone and sniper attack targeting the UFC Freedom 250 event held at the White House in June. The plot, which began in May, involved the group stockpiling firearms, explosives, drones, and other equipment, with law enforcement learning of the threat on June 10, four days before the event. The indictment charges all eight men in two separate conspiracies: providing material support to terrorists and planning murder on federal government territory.
