FBI Arrests 24-Year-Old Skyler Philippi in Plot to Destroy Nashville Energy Facility with Explosive Drone
Nov 5, 2024, 01:56 AM
Federal authorities have arrested and charged 24-year-old Tennessee man, Skyler Philippi, with attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction to destroy an energy facility in Nashville. Philippi allegedly planned to use an explosive-laden drone to attack the power grid. The Department of Justice stated that Philippi has ties to white nationalist groups, including Atomwaffen Division—he is the 20th member to face federal charges—and is associated with accelerationist white supremacist ideology, which seeks societal collapse to form a white ethnostate. According to the FBI, Philippi participated in a Nordic ritual that involved praying to Odin before the attempted act of terrorism. The FBI thwarted the plot moments before it was to be executed.
