(KMGH) A young Castle Rock man has been charged with terrorism-related crimes after attempting to board an international flight last week to join the Islamic State (ISIS) and serve as one of its fighters in Iraq, according to a complaint filed in U.S. District Court of Colorado.
Davin Daniel Meyer, 18, was arrested as he attempted to board a flight out of Denver International Airport shortly before 8 p.m. on July 14 and charged with one count of attempting to provide material support or resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization.
The 29-page complaint states Meyer came to the attention of federal agents in June of last year after a friend observed the suspect’s “radical Islamic beliefs escalate as Meyer sought out more extremist videos and content online and openly discussed his violent intentions.”
