A disturbing and deeply unsettling plot to carry out a mass-casualty attack at a Texas synagogue has been foiled
Authorities have arrested 18-year-old Angelina Han Hicks of Lexington, North Carolina, after uncovering what investigators describe as a coordinated plan to carry out a horrific attack on members of Congregation Beth Israel in Houston, Texas.
According to court documents and law enforcement officials, Hicks allegedly conspired with at least two other individuals to carry out a violent assault targeting Jewish worshippers.
The plan reportedly involved using a vehicle to drive into a congregation with the explicit goal of killing as many people as possible.
Federal authorities say the FBI received a tip that triggered a rapid multi-agency response, ultimately leading to Hicks’ arrest at her home.
She now faces multiple felony charges, including conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to commit assault with a deadly weapon. Her bond has been set at a staggering $10 million.

On Tuesday FBI received a tip that an individual out of Lexington, North Carolina was planning a mass casualty event at a Jewish Day School near Houston, Texas.
@FBICharlotte and @FBIHouston acted quickly, and working with our outstanding local partners in the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office, the subject has been taken into custody.
Investigation ongoing. Thank you to our Joint Terrorism Task Force personnel, FBI teams and local partners for their decisive work that likely saved lives.
