A Midlothian man has been charged with attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization after he brought bomb-making materials to an individual he thought was part of ISIS, authorities said.
John Michael Garza Jr. was charged in a federal complaint with international terrorism, according to U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Ryan Raybould.
According to the complaint, Garza brought bomb-making components to a meeting on Dec. 22.
“In reality, Garza met with an FBI undercover,” according to a news release. “During the meeting, Garza described how to mix components and offered to send an instructional video explaining how to build the bomb.”
