Two men have been arrested on accusations of plotting a ‘Netflix-worthy’ series of ISIS-inspired terrorist attacks including bombings on Trump Tower and the New York Stock Exchange.
Jaylyn Christopher Molina, of San Antonio, Texas, and Kristopher Sean Matthews, 34, from Eglin, South Carolina, were arrested on Monday.
Molina was detained in Texas and Matthews arrested in Tennessee.
The FBI claim they intercepted communications which showed the men planning an attack in the name of the Islamic State, according to court documents obtained by KSAT.
