FBI Arrests MN Teen Accused Of Plotting Mass Shooting
In a recent segment on town hall media, journalist Dustin Grage discusses the arrest of an 18-year-old Minnesota man accused of planning a mass shooting at the Mall of America. This incident highlights a concerning trend of homegrown terrorism and violence within the Somali community in Minnesota.
