Man Arrested for Planned Attack on NY Jews

Canadian authorities have arrested a 20-year-old Pakistani national for a planned mass shooting of Jews in Brooklyn. Shahzeb Jadoon was detained Wednesday in Quebec.

He planned the shooting on behalf of the Islamic State for October 7 to mark the first anniversary of the Hamas attacks in Israel.

Canadian law enforcement stopped Jadoon 12 miles from the U.S. border. Two undercover officers had been communicating with the suspect since late 2023 after he distributed ISIS propaganda, and they were tipped off to the planned attack.
