Neo-Nazi charged with terrorism in attempt to wreck Amtrak train, complaint says - CNN
Sounds like a real nice guy! :shock:
A white man who was involved with neo-Nazi groups and who attended a "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville has been charged with terrorism for attempting to wreck an Amtrak train, according to a criminal complaint filed in US District Court.
He allegedly played with the controls and applied the emergency brakes, causing the train to stop with intent to harm those aboard, the complaint states. Wilson, who had a fully loaded weapon on him, was charged with use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony and felony criminal mischief, both state charges.
A search warrant for his cell phone showed that he had a banner with the annotation "'Hands up don't shoot' is Anti-white fake news -- Altright'" over an unknown highway, the complaint states.
Later, the FBI interviewed Wilson's cousin and roommate, who said Wilson had joined an "alt-right" group that Wilson had found researching white supremacy forums online, the complaint states.
