万圣节恐袭图谋两人被起诉,被控为恐怖袭击转让枪支弹药

2025年11月3日,美国密歇根州韦恩县 Dearborn 市两名20岁男子 Mohmed Ali 与 Majed Mahmoud 在联邦法院被起诉。密歇根东区联邦检察官办公室解封的刑事诉状指控两人接收与转让、并企图与共谋转让枪支弹药,且明知这些武器将被用于实施联邦恐怖主义罪行;若罪名成立,每人最高可判15年联邦监禁并处罚金25万美元。
诉状称,Ali、Mahmoud 与同谋者受极端组织「伊斯兰国」的极端主义影响,其中一名未成年者(诉状中称 Person 1)深入参与谋划。调查人员称,这伙人在交谈中多次以「南瓜」指代万圣节袭击,还曾于9月19日与20日两晚踩点底特律郊区 Ferndale 市多家 LGBTQ+ 酒吧,作为可能的袭击地点。
诉状称,Ali 在2025年8月至9月购买了一支霰弹枪、一支 AR-15 式步枪与多件枪支配件,包括可加快半自动射速的强制复位扳机;Mahmoud 于9月购买一支 AR-15 式步枪与配件,并在10月购买了1,600多发可用于这类步枪的弹药。两人与同谋者还多次到射击场用 AK-47 式步枪练枪、练习快速换弹匣。
10月31日 FBI 执行搜查后,从相关住宅与 Inkster 市一处储藏单元中查获三支 AR-15 式步枪、两支霰弹枪、四支手枪、1,600多发弹药,以及 GoPro 相机与战术背心等装备。司法部长 Pam Bondi 在社交平台上说:「我们的美国英雄阻止了一场恐怖袭击。」
两人于11月3日在联邦法院短暂出庭,继续被羁押,羁押听证定于11月10日举行。诉状只是一项指控,两名被告在法庭证明有罪之前均被推定无罪。其中一名被告的律师对媒体表示,不认为当事人参与了恐怖图谋。调查始于2025年7月,FBI在加密聊天中发现了袭击谋划的线索。
Two Men Charged in Halloween Terror Plot, Accused of Transferring Guns and Ammunition for a Terrorist Attack
On November 3, 2025, Mohmed Ali and Majed Mahmoud, both 20 and from Dearborn in Wayne County, Michigan, were charged in federal court. The criminal complaint unsealed by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Michigan charges the two with receiving and transferring, and attempting and conspiring to transfer, firearms and ammunition while knowing they would be used to commit a federal crime of terrorism; each faces up to 15 years in federal prison and a 250,000 dollar fine if convicted.
The complaint says Ali, Mahmoud and co-conspirators were inspired by the Islamic State group's extremism, and that a minor, identified only as Person 1, was deeply involved in the discussions. Investigators say the men repeatedly referred to "pumpkins" in their conversations, a reference to a Halloween attack, and that in September, on the nights of September 19 and 20, they scouted LGBTQ+ bars in Ferndale, a Detroit suburb, as a possible attack site.
According to the complaint, Ali bought a shotgun, an AR-15-style rifle and multiple accessories in August and September 2025, including a forced reset trigger that can increase the rate of fire of a semiautomatic weapon; Mahmoud bought an AR-15-style rifle and accessories in September and, in October, more than 1,600 rounds of ammunition for the rifles. The men and their co-conspirators also practiced at gun ranges with AK-47-style rifles and rehearsed high-speed reloads.
Searches on October 31 of homes and a storage unit in Inkster recovered three AR-15-style rifles, two shotguns, four handguns, more than 1,600 rounds of ammunition, and GoPro cameras and tactical vests. Attorney General Pam Bondi said on social media: "Our American heroes prevented a terror attack."
The two men made brief appearances in federal court on November 3 and remained in custody, with a detention hearing set for November 10. A complaint is merely an allegation, and both defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty. A lawyer for one defendant told reporters he did not believe his client was involved in a terror plot. The investigation began in July 2025, when the FBI picked up the alleged planning in encrypted chats.
