The FBI arrested two people, including a neo-Nazi leader, before they could attack Baltimore's power grid, officials announced on Monday.

"As the criminal complaint alleges, (Sarah) Clendaniel and (Brandon) Russell conspired and took steps to shoot multiple electrical substations in the Baltimore area, aiming to, quote, completely destroy this whole city," U.S. attorney for Maryland Erek Barron told reporters.

According to the FBI, the plot was racially motivated, though did not provide additional details. About 62 per cent of Baltimore city residents are Black, according to U.S. Census data.

Russell is a founder of a neo-Nazi group named Atomwaffen Division, which the Southern Poverty Law Center says works towards "ushering in the collapse of civilization." Officials said from at least June 2022 to the present, Russell had conspired to carry out attacks against critical infrastructure.
