ISIS plot foiled against Taylor Swift concert in Vienna

this week had planned to drive a bomb-riddled car into the crowd to kill as many as possible and had reportedly just been hired by the venue to work security.

The teen suspects arrested for plotting an ISIS-style terror attack at one of Taylor Swift’s Austrian concerts this week had planned to drive a bomb-riddled car into the crowd.The alleged ringleader, a 19-year-old Austrian with North Macedonian roots, had chemical substances and technical devices found stashed inside his home when it was raided by authorities, according to officials.

Meanwhile, both older suspects had been under surveillance by Austrian authorities and were known risks before their arrests, officials said. They said the older suspect was “clearly radicalized in the direction of the Islamic State and thinks it is right to kill infidels.”Swift had been slated to play the three sold-out shows, which were expected to draw 195,000 people, Thursday through Saturday.“The situation was serious, the situation is serious. But we can also say: A tragedy was prevented,” Austria’s Interior Minister Gerhard Karner said Thursday.
