The FBI office in Salt Lake City said it’s investigating home-grown, violent terrorists.
“As recent events around the world, around the country have shown, this is no longer a coastal issue,” said Eric Barnhart, who heads the FBI’s Salt Lake field office that covers Utah, Idaho and Montana, the Desert News reports.
“I think there used to be a narrative that if I don’t live on the West Coast or the East Coast, I’m going to be immune from this,” he said. “ISIL has changed that.”
Barnhart declined to give numbers or they types of terrorism-related cases that are under instigation.
Barnhart described ISIS as a “whole different monster” because of its “kill where you are” philosophy.
