Authorities are on the hunt for a recent Army recruit accused of planning a “Fort Hood-inspired Jihad against U.S. soldiers,” Fox News reports.
A man identified as Booker told his friends of his intentions. He’s also known as Muhammad Abdullah Hassan, Fox News reports.
The suspect was scheduled to be part of basic training on April 7 but was discharged last week after making the threats.
The FBI and the 902d Military Intelligence Group at Fort Leavenworth are involved in the search.
An alert was distributed through the U.S. Marine Corps.
