## Resource

Eight people face serious federal charges after allegedly plotting a deadly drone and sniper attack at a UFC event held on the White House lawn—just days before the show, authorities foiled the scheme. Two teens, Tycen Proper and Chandler Scaggs, entered not guilty pleas, while all eight are accused of conspiring to murder on federal land and support terrorism. Court docs reveal chilling plans to fly explosive drones and open fire on fleeing crowds, fueled by fringe theories meant to destabilize the government. The trial begins September 14—and prosecutors say swift action likely averted catastrophe, as suspects were reportedly en route to D.C. when caught.
