Minnesota police arrested a man accused of stealing weapons for a possible attack and posting online threats to federal immigration agents, Israel and “Amerikka.”

Mohamed Adan Mohamed was arrested April 17 in St. Peter after allegedly taking $2,150 worth of merchandise, including gun magazines, from a store in another city and then fleeing, police said in court documents. Mohamed allegedly posted about planning to organize a protest at the Minnesota Capitol building and may have been plotting a “mass casualty” attack, police said.

Mohamed’s social media posts included pictures of himself with weaponry and the phrase, “#deathtoamerikkan&israelliImperialism,” a criminal complaint says. He also allegedly posted a “reminder that Amerikka was founded on revolution” and that he was getting “more and more prepped every day” in honor of his “Arab comrades.”

Police said the suspect at one point posted a picture of himself holding a rifle and warned, “this is what ICE will see if they show up to kidnap me,” a reference to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

“Let me teach y’all a true lesson on what it’s like to be a true patriot,” Mohamed allegedly said in a post with an image of a “handgun with a loaded magazine.”

Mohamed’s posts suggested he sought to lead others to the state capitol on Tuesday, where he said his “mother is willing to put her body on the line to protest with me,” according to the documents.

St. Peter police obtained an “extreme risk protection order” from a court on Friday that allowed them to seize Mohamed’s firearms, which included an “AR style rifle” and two “3D printed” guns, documents show.

A state law enforcement agent reported that “there were strong indicators that Mohamed was preparing to conduct some sort of attack (Mass Casualty Event) in the next twenty-four hours,” the criminal complaint said.

The complaint alleged Mohamed “nearly ran over a person” in his car while fleeing the store. He also allegedly left behind a written “survival guide” that listed a “sleeping bag, lighters, 8 magazines, knives, pepper spray, a ‘6-mag chest right,’” and “bows and arrows.”

The complaint charges Mohamed with theft and making a violent threat, both felonies. County records do not list an attorney to speak for Mohamed.

The Blue Earth County attorney’s office referred questions from the Daily Caller News Foundation to another agency. The county formally filed the charges against Mohamed on Monday, and he is being held in jail with a $500,000 bond, the Minnesota Star Tribune reported.

ICE under President Donald Trump has made a flurry of arrests and deportations of foreign nationals involved in radical anti-Israel advocacy, while the State Department has revoked hundreds of visas on the same grounds. The operations follow a January executive order from Trump declaring that foreigners who “bear hostile attitudes toward [American] citizens, culture, government, institutions, or founding principles” or endorse “terrorists and other threats to our national security” are subject to removal from the country.
