Federal authorities say a University of Delaware student painstakingly outlined a plan to target the university’s police department, leaving behind written details that investigators discovered during his arrest and a subsequent raid on his home.
Fox News reported that the Justice Department said 25-year-old Luqmaan Khan was taken into custody last week following a traffic stop in New Castle County.
Officers allegedly recovered a .357 caliber Glock handgun loaded with 27 rounds, along with three additional extended magazines, an armored ballistic plate, and two notebooks.
“In the handwritten notebook, Khan discussed additional weapons and firearms, how they could be used in an attack, and how law enforcement detection could be avoided once an attack was carried out,” the DOJ said in a statement.
Investigators said the pages included a diagram labeled “UD Police Station,” complete with entry and exit points and a reference to a University of Delaware police officer by name.
The materials also contained what prosecutors described as warfare techniques and assault plans, along with layouts of university buildings.
