Authorities say Gann’s alleged actions included throwing an IED onto the Williamsburg Bridge subway tracks and hoarding explosives, some with shotgun shells, above Manhattan apartment buildings.
He was arrested June 5 with another device on him, officials said. On Instagram on the same day, Gann reportedly posted, “Who wants me to go out to play like no tomorrow?”
FBI Assistant Director Christopher Raia credited the “swift partnership” between agencies for stopping Gann before he could inflict harm. NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said the coordinated effort “intervened before he caused any harm.”
The case is being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s National Security and International Narcotics Unit.
