New York (CNN) -- Authorities have arrested two men at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport as part of an ongoing investigation, the FBI and New York police said early Sunday morning.
Neither agency would disclose further details about the arrests. But they did not relate to "any known immediate threat to the public or active plot against the United States," said Rebekah Carmichael, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's office in Newark, New Jersey.
The airport was not at risk, the FBI said.
The Newark Star-Ledger newspaper said the two men were taken into custody before they boarded flights to link up with a jihadist group in Somalia. FBI agents also raided two homes in New Jersey, the newspaper said.
I can't wait to find out what this is all about. :thumb:
