TERRORISM: Mark Domingo, 26, a U.S. Army infantryman who fought in Afghanistan and recently converted to Islam, was taken into custody on Friday after being given what he thought was a live bomb to use in the attack by an FBI informant, law enforcement officials said. “Domingo, who said he wanted to become a martyr in a ‘violent jihad,’ also made reference to the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing, according to the complaint.”
