INDIANAPOLIS – The Federal Bureau of Investigation says it stopped an ISIS-inspired attacked planned at a central Indiana school.
The agency isn’t providing many details about the incident, including the school in question.
The information surfaced as part of an FBI Indianapolis Field Office report released Monday touting its operational successes.
A news release said the field office “disrupted an ISIS-inspired plot targeting a Central Indiana high school through rapid coordination with local partners.”
NewsNation local affiliate FOX59/CBS4 reached out to the FBI for additional information. In response, FBI spokesperson Chris Bavender said the matter was “ongoing.”
“Because the student had immediate access to firearms, FBI Indianapolis worked closely with the high school and our local law enforcement partner to remove all firearms from the house, and the student was expelled from school. DOJ did not file charges as the individual is a juvenile,” Bavender said in a statement.
The FBI didn’t release additional details, such as the school involved and the timing of the plot.
The FBI’s report touted a 112% increase in arrests compared to 2024. Overall, it made 317 violent crime arrests and seized 163 weapons.
Other accomplishments touted by the office included multiple convictions in a $44 million virtual schools fraud case and the disruption of a $50 million healthcare fraud scam.
