Revealed. Tonight, right here the giant new clues. Hold on. Were home. Good evening. And we begin tonight with news of that terror arrest. Its the kind of threat authorities have warned of for quite some time now. Americans lured overseas by terrorists and trained, and tonight, the first arrest they say oaf an american coming back to the u. S. To attack. This man is from Columbus Ohio and Authorities Say he had returned from syria with training and a plan. Abc ceason justice correspondent Pierre Thomas tonight with the kind of alleged training this man received explosives hand to hand combat. And where he was planning to strike. Reporter the fbi says this 23yearold american had returned to the u. S. Wanting to do something big. Including going to a Texas Military base to kill american soldiers execution style. Allegedly inspired by isis about Abdirahman Sheikh mo hall mud had a oneway airline to greece. He disappeared, slipping into syria. The fbi says once there, he joined an al qaeda affiliate, training in weapons breaking into houses explosives and hand to hand combat. Perhaps most disturbing prosecutors claim, a cleric in syria directed him to return to the United States and carry out an act of terrorism. The benefit of being american is, he has good paper. That means, hes able to travel. He has a u. S. Passport. That is gold. Law enforcement has been concerned about this travel pattern for quite awhile. Reporter mohamud returned to the u. S. In june and authorities had been tracking him for months. The fbi believes he had been completely radicalized, expressing support for isis. Even downloading images to his facebook page. Pierre thomas live now from washington and this had always been the fear that americans would g overseas get training and return. But this is the first arrest upon coming baing . Reporter david, about 180 americans have joined isis or al qaeda in syria and iraq. We believe this is the first time that someone has been charged with going over there and returning home with a mission to kill. Pierre thomas tonight, thank you. Now, to that other major scare in the nations capital. Tourists horrified as they watched a pilot in his oneman helicopter soar in unstopped by homeland security. You can hear the tourists. This is not good, people. Landing on the west lawn triggering panic. The bomb squad called in. Tonight, the pilot upclose. A postal worker from florida, hauled into court and charged. As we ask here how was someone allowed to get so close undetect undetected . Again tonight, abcs jim avila. Reporter tonight, still in his u. S. Postal Service Jacket the first glimpse of doug hughes the pilot of that gyrocontinuer that landed right on the lawn of the capital. This new video shows him flipping there what should be a nofly zone, zooming past the world war ii memorial over the heads of tourists through the National Mall and past the washington monument. This is not good, people. Reporter and now, serious questions about how hughes dodged the nations radar and Missile Security systems. Starting his journey in gettysburg traveling the 80 miles to the National Mall in washington, d. C. Flying just 150 feet above ground at roughly 45 miles per hour. Homeland security secretary jeh johnson admitting the pilot, quote, literally flew in under the radar. And from the white house, serious concern. It may provide an opportunity for Law Enforcement agencies including the secret service to review their procedures. Reporter the postal worker had made no secret of his plans, shooting this video with his local newspaper, practicing his wobbly flight back home in florida. Hughes himself said he put the authorities on notice before his stunt. I dont believe that the authorities are going to shoot down a 60yearold mailman in a flying bicycle. Reporter the secret service says no one warned them specifically about yesterdays flight. As for the pilot, he was released from jail, on the condition that he operates nothing that flies and stays away from the capitol. David . Jim avila, thank you. Tonight major questions about that reserve deputy 73 years old, reaching for his taser, instead, pulling out his gun. Where are the records of his training some are asking . The images weve all seen now, chasing after that unarmed suspect. The deputy saying he grabbed the wrong weapon. Instead, shooting and killing him. The suspect did not survive. Tonight, youre about to hear an interview with the sheriff, who acknowledges that they cant find the records. Abcs ryan owens on the case again tonight. Reporter when that oklahoma volunteer deputy confused a gun for his taser oh i shot him. Im sorry. Republican killing an unarmed suspect, did it happen in part because 73yearold reserve Deputy Robert bates wasnt even fully trained to handle his weapons . Thats the explosive allegation from the news room of the tulsa world. The newspaper reporting the department falsified training records, including firearms certifications. Whats more supervisors were transferred after refusing to sign off. Heres the thing. Reporter the shooting happened after a sting, when 44yearold eric harris ran for it after allegedly selling drugs and guns to an undercover deputy. Both the Sheriffs Department and bates Attorney Says he was welltrained. But tulsa county sheriff stanley gla glanes acknowledged that bates records are incomplete. We cant find the reports that she supposedly turned in. Reporter bates is a longtime friend of sheriff glanz. He ran his Reelection Campaign and donated thousands in cars and equipment to the department. I think people can draw their own conclusions. The sheriff and deputy bates have been friends for 40 years. Reporter tonight, the Sheriffs Department will not respond to the newspapers specific allegations, because they used unnamed sources. We dont respond to rumors they tell abc news. Meanwhile, the family of the man killed asking for an fbi investigation. David . Ryan owens with us tonight. Ryan, thank you.

We are actually getting an aircraft landing right now with an alert where we think someone is trapped in the baggage compartment. Oh. Or something else. Oh, my gosh. Okay. Reporter pretty remarkable.
