A 21-year-old man from Western Pennsylvania claimed allegiance with ISIS and was planning a terrorist attack before he was arrested with a firearm, nearly 200 rounds of ammunition and about 30 knives when he was arrested over this past weekend, according to the FBI.
On Tuesday, Sept. 15, officials with the Department of Justice announced that Jonathan Hunter Kramer, 21, of Valencia, Pa., was charged with federal weapons offenses for having a firearm and ammunition that would be used to commit terrorism and related offenses following an investigation that began back in 2023.
"This FBI continues to move more effectively than we ever have stopping terrorists before they harm the American people," said FBI Director Kash Patel in a statement on Kramer's arrest. "The subject in this case was allegedly plotting a violent attack in support of ISIS - engaging with ISIS propaganda online, building attack concepts, and repeatedly expressing extremist rhetoric - all while acquiring weapons believed to be in preparation of the attack."
Kramer came to the attention of the FBI back in 2023 when, as a minor, he was reported to federal officials after he was charged on allegations related to planning to commit a mass casualty incident and possessing child sexual abuse materials, officials said.
Then, earlier this year, in March, following his release from a juvenile detention facility, the FBI received a tip after Kramer was, allegedly, receiving "mysterious" packages in the mail and was "talking to his friends from before."
According to court documents, a follow up investigation into this tip alleges Kramer was using an online persona under the name "Hamza Al Rashid," through which he "claimed affiliation with ISIS, offered to share explosive manuals with others, and expressed his intent to prepare for his 'mission' and that he was just missing a 'weapon.'"
Then, officials said, investigators with the FBI observed Kramer "quickly depart" his home on Sept. 12, 2026, while carrying a bag before using a rideshare service to go to a retail store where he purchased a disposable cell phone.
