A Florida man charged with planting a bomb near the U.S. military’s Central Command has fled to China and his sister is under arrest in the plot, according to federal prosecutors.
Alen Zheng, 20, was charged in an unsealed indictment disclosed Thursday with planting an improvised explosive device at the MacDill Air Force Base visitors center.
MacDill, located near Tampa, Florida, hosts the Central Command headquarters that is the nerve center for the current large-scale military operations against Iran.
