A Pennsylvania teenager accused of helping people travel to the Middle East to join ISIS was indicted Tuesday, Reuters reports. 

Jalil Ibn Aziz, 19, of Harrisburg, was charged with conspiring and attempting to provide material support to a militant group.

Investigators said Aziz used at least 57 Twitter accounts to show his support for violence against Americans and to spread ISIS propaganda. He also posted the names of U.S. military members as potential targets.

Investigators are still trying to determine whether he acted alone or was in contact with other extremists.
