Alleged al Qaeda supporter accused of trying to kill American

State-owned media in the United Arab Emirates is reporting a 29-year-old Emirati man faces charges after trying to kill a U.S. citizen with his car.

The National newspaper of Abu Dhabi reported Tuesday that the man had allegedly pledged his support to the al Qaeda-linked militant group Jabhat Fatah al-Sham in Syria, which was formerly known as the Nusra Front.

The newspaper reports the man had allegedly plotted other attacks, including “bombing the headquarters of Sky News Arabia in Abu Dhabi and Al Arabiya in Dubai.”
