A 20-year-old Pennsylvania man, Jonathan Hunter Kramer, is charged with receipt or transfer of a firearm or ammunition knowing it would be used to commit a federal crime of terrorism on behalf of ISIS. Investigators say he bought a rifle in Gibsonia, acquired a disposable phone, checked into a hotel with cash, and visited a gun store, with online posts and his day-of actions forming probable cause.
