Ahmad Khan Rahami, the 28-year-old man accused of placing bombs in New York City and New Jersey over the weekend, was the subject of an FBI investigation more than two years ago.
The Washington Post reports that the FBI received a tip from Rahami’s father, who expressed concerns about his son, prompting an investigation that included interviews and a review of internal databases.
At the time, the FBI concluded no evidence of “ties to terrorism.”
Rahami’s father spoke to reporters recently and said his son was violent toward family members “for no reason.”
FBI agents “found nothing” during the investigation, according to an official who spoke to the Post.
