HeadlineJun 23, 2006

In Miami, seven people were arrested Thursday on charges of plotting to launch attacks inside the United States. The alleged targets include Chicago’s Sears Tower, an FBI office in Miami and other federal buildings. Authorities say the suspects prepared for the attacks out of a Miami warehouse. The seven are believed to be young American Muslims in their late teens and early twenties. A man claiming to be a member of the group told CNN Thursday they are peaceful and innocent of the charges.
