Other Targets Eyed By Bucks Co. Teens Charged In NYC Terror Plot, Notebooks Reveals: Report

MIDDLETOWN TOWNSHIP, PA — A notebook found in a storage facility where devices were detonated earlier this week shows that other targets were considered by two Bucks County teenagers charged in a New York City terror plot, according to a report.

The notebook found in the Langhorne storage facility during a search by authorities listed other targets like shopping centers, although no specific place was mentioned, Action News 6 said.

Action News 6 also has a video of Balat allegedly buying a 20-foot consumer fireworks safety fuse for $6.89 from Phantom Fireworks in Penndel.

Meanwhile, a car believed to be connected with the weekend IED attack in New York City was impounded early Tuesday morning after it was found in the parking lot at the Anchor Shopping Center in Wrightstown, police said.

Federal authorities said that explosives detonated at a Langhorne storage facility on Monday night had the same residue on the devices used in the New York City terror plot over the weekend.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation said residue from the explosives was linked to the devices thrown at Gracie Mansion in an incident involving two Bucks County teenagers.

The FBI descended on a public storage facility on South Flowers Mill Road in Langhorne on Monday night in a raid to gather evidence linked to 18-year-old Emir Balat of Middletown Township and 19-year-old Ibrahim Kayumi of Newtown Township, authorities said.

The two were charged in a federal criminal complaint on Monday for their involvement in an "ISIS-inspired" terrorism plot against protesters outside Gracie Mansion on Saturday.

The two suspects wanted to carry out an attack "bigger than the Boston Marathon attack," Balet told authorities, the criminal complaint states, when asked if he was familiar with that terrorism plot. "No, even bigger. That was only three deaths."

The FBI executed a search warrant at the facility, collecting evidence. Monday's operation involved tactical teams, evidence response personnel, and support from local police and emergency services, the FBI New York reported.

The two suspects were charged on Monday with five federal counts, including providing material support to a designated foreign terrorist group, use of a weapon of mass destruction, transportation of explosive materials, Interstate transportation, and receipt of explosives and unlawful possession of destructive devices.
