Florida Hotel Arrest: Man Plotting New Orleans Festival Shooting

0:00It's April 23, from coast to coast. This is US News today, powered by AI. I'm Cory with the story. A guy from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, got busted at a Florida hotel with a handgun and hundreds of rounds of ammo, all while plotting a mass. Shooting at a big New Orleans festival. Federal agents tipped off the Okalusa County Sheriff's Office after spotting him heading south from North Carolina, where he was wanted for. Terroristic threats by the Department of Public Safety. Law enforcement coordinated across states, naving him as a fugitive from justice. He said to be extradited back to Louisiana to face charges there. New Orleans mayor Helena Moreno gave big props to the teamwork, calling it a job well done, while state police say there's no known direct threats too. Any festivals right now. Trooper Danny Barincha and the FBI are still digging into the details, making sure this plot stays shut down for good.
