The DOJ announced today that Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud, 18, of Richfield, Minnesota was arrested prior to carrying out an attack on the Mall of America. The suspect Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud planned to enter the Mall of America with a recently purchased AK-47 and massacre as many as possible. Sheikhdoon was born in the U.S. to Somali parents.
DOJ PRESS RELEASE – Sheikhdoon Abdullahi Mohamud, 18, of Richfield, Minnesota, was charged today by complaint with one count of knowingly receiving a firearm and ammunition in order to commit a federal crime of terrorism.
The FBI arrested the defendant on Oct. 6, and he made his initial appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Elizabeth Cowan Wright on Oct. 7.
“This individual allegedly obtained a weapon he hoped to use in a mass casualty attack in support of ISIS, but this FBI arrested him and put a stop to his plans,” said FBI Director Kash Patel. “Once again this FBI is moving more effectively than we ever have before at stopping terrorists before they can attack Americans – with over 1,100 individuals prevented from conducting attacks, over 4,000 foreign terrorist organization related disruptions and arrests, a 38% increase, and more. We will continue to use every resource we have to detect and prevent acts of terrorism and wipe out their networks all over the country. Thank you to FBI Minneapolis who did an outstanding job in the investigation and likely saved lives.”
“Mohamud allegedly sought to carry out a mass-casualty shooting at the Mall of America, expressing a desire to emulate some of the most horrific ISIS-inspired attacks in the United States, including the atrocities at Pulse Nightclub and 2025 New Year’s Day attack in New Orleans,” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg. “The National Security Division will continue to work closely with the FBI and Joint Terrorism Task Force to track down and prosecute ISIS-inspired terrorists in the United States.”
“As alleged in the criminal complaint, Mohamud took substantial steps to plot to murder innocent people in the name of ISIS,” said U.S. Attorney Daniel N. Rosen for the District of Minnesota. “Such threats are taken seriously, and I commend the committed public servants of the Joint Terrorism Task Force, the FBI, and my office, who work every day to stop them.”
According to the complaint, beginning in or about December 2024, Mohamud exchanged hundreds of messages through multiple social media and messaging applications with a confidential source. Mohamud expressed his desire to travel to Somalia to join a designated foreign terrorist organization to fight on its behalf. Mohamud also expressed a desire to commit a mass-casualty event in Minnesota by acquiring and using a firearm and ammunition. The defendant stated many times that if he was unable to travel overseas because of a lack of funds, he planned to carry out a mass-casualty event in Minnesota in support of ISIS. (read more)

You can also credit W for his contribution to this …..issue….in mininiplace. Just another skinny who was stopped…
That’s 0bama, with a zer0.
Evil mofo
The Biden/Hussein Obama Administrations would not have done this, they have too many voters of sympathetic ideology; thank God we have people in this Administration who will act to stop this type of thing happening.
It’s what happens when the 3rd world has unfettered access to the 1st world…AND IF Lightbringer had a son.
i was raised in Richfield MN 1963-1977 but also all over the state until 2005.
anyways, richfield was mayberry RFD back then..as was all of MN for the most part.
neighbors were neighborly, godly and trust worthy. we didn’t lock our doors EVER
it truly was Mn Nice.
we left the state in 2005 and now live in both western SD and ND and I do not regret that move.
I now live in a small rural towns where we never lock our doors and life is like it was when i was a kid
here. but i do worry about the creep of the islamic / liberal crap coming here.
I lived in Richfield 1978-1994. It was an entirely different world than it is today. I miss those days.
The globalists are probably planning several large apartment complexes for your little town to house newly arrived Somalis.
They all believe in the same outcome and ALL should be removed.
Radical or moderate there is absolutely no difference in their beliefs.
Read their evil document; there is no such thing as a peaceful moslem.
What’s funny about this guy- $600 for an AK-47, four magazines, and 200 rounds. That’s a really good deal- a suspiciously good deal. I don’t know why the FBI didn’t raise the price, they can afford it with all of the billions they’ve stolen from us.
This guy – wanted to kill whites, set the date for the shooting when the Mall of America (MOA) would have a lot of Asians, and he didn’t like the MOA because it was owned by Jewish owners.
Meanwhile in other things, Somali gangs have been busy shooting up the suburbs (Bloomington, Eden Prairie, and Edina) lately.
Imagine the peaceful moslems living in fear because of…of…
Izzlumm-a-phobia!
“Sheikhdoon was born in the U.S. to Somali parents.”
Did they home school him?
No, he went to the local Learing Center.
I knew that was coming! Lol
How many more came across our border between ’21 and ’25?
Glad ICE wasn’t involved or we would be talking about the protests and cities being burned instead of the crime.
Lucky he is in federal custody and not local or he would walk before the weekend.
I grew up in MN, spent almost all of my childhood that I can remember in MN. This was from 1985 to 1999. I LOVED visiting the Twin Cities when I was a kid. I have so many fond memories of my time there. My family moved south and my most formative years as a young adult were spent outside of MN.
After being gone for 13 years, I ended up moving back to MN for work, and it was sad to realize I did not belong in the state I had always viewed as home. I spent two years in Minneapolis before relocating for work again, and I haven’t looked back. And when I left the second time, it was well before Saint Floyd’s martyrdom, and the proliferation of Quality Learing Centers. Y’all can imagine what it did to my standing in social circles when I expressed the viewpoints espoused by many of us here. Normally, I would proclaim some level of vindication, but it’s just sad seeing the fruits of leftism metastasize beyond control.
I hope I NEVER go back.
All these somalis need to be sent back. Period.
Those white supremacists continue to wreak havoc just as Biden’s Justice Department warned.
Doesn’t Mohamud look like a delightful guy? NOT!! 💁🏻♀️ Send these criminals first to prison then back to Somalia!!
De-naturalize the parents and deport them back to Somalia
“Muslim values are Minnesota values”
In prior administrations, this would have been called a known wolf after the fact.
It’s in Minnesota. He’ll be out on the streets in a few days.
If I’m wrong, it’s only because the timeline.
