(CBS) A 20-year-old Jordanian national living in Texas allegedly trained with others of a “radical mindset” to “possibly commit an attack” after he illegally obtained firearms, according to federal investigators.
Court documents reveal Sohaib Abuayyash — who at one point traveled to the U.S. on a Palestinian passport — was arrested in Houston on Oct. 19, after investigators said he had been “conducting physical training” and “trained with weapons to possibly commit an attack.”
Abuayyash is currently charged with one count of unlawful possession of a firearm by someone with a nonimmigrant visa. Details described in court documents allege he spoke of martyrdom in support of a religious cause.
