The F-B-I says members of a militia group planned to kidnap Michigan Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer and take her to Wisconsin for a “trial.”
Six suspects are named in a criminal complaint unsealed Thursday in federal court. As many as 13 arrests may be connected to the alleged plot.
The F-B-I says five of the men took part in training exercises in Cambria last July and tried, unsuccessfully, to build an improvised explosive device.
Undercover agents and informants are being given credit for exposing the plot which involved at least two unidentified men from Wisconsin.
The suspects were arrested Wednesday night in Michigan.
