The FBI arrested a 25-year-old man from Ann Arbor, Michigan, this morning at a hotel in Canton, Michigan. He is accused of posting threats online, detailing plans for a shooting attack targeting Christian supporters of President Trump if Trump were to win the election.
The FBI took 25-year-old Isaac Sissel into custody after online messages he posted threatening to massacre conservative Christians if President Trump wins the election were discovered.
After his arrest, the man said Trump was a threat that “should be eliminated” and that “everything would be better if Trump were dead.”
According to the FBI, “Sissel said that he believed that there would be violence during the election…and wouldn’t rule out joining Antifa to protest.”
The threat said the attacker would use an AR-15, hollow-point ammunition, and a chemical irritant.
From the US Attorney’s Office Eastern District – According to court records, on November 2, 2024, the FBI National Threat Operations Center in West Virginia received an anonymous online threatening submission.
The threat read in part: “I shall carry out an attack against conservative Christian, (sic) filth in the event Trump wins the election. I have a stolen AR15 and a target I refuse to name
