Authorities have arrested Harun Abdul-Malik Yener, a 30-year-old homeless man from Coral Springs, Florida, for allegedly plotting to bomb the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). The arrest occurred on November 20, 2024, following an investigation initiated by the FBI in February after receiving a tip regarding bomb-making schematics. According to charging documents, Yener intended to use an explosive device to damage or destroy a building used in interstate commerce, aiming to force a 'reboot' or 'reset' of the U.S. government. The FBI's operation culminated in Yener's arrest, which has raised significant concerns about security at financial institutions.
