The FBI is trying to determine whether Mohammod Youssuf Abdulazeez, the 24-year-old who killed four Marines and a Navy petty office in Tennessee on Thursday, was involved with ISIS, USA Today reports.
Agents are examining Abdulazeez’s cellphone and computer and investigating his recent trip to Jordan following the shooting.
Family of Abdulazeez, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Kuwait, said he was depressed “for many years.”
Before the shooting, Abdulazeez reportedly texted an Islamic verse to a friend.
“Whosoever shows enmity to a friend of Mine, then I have declared war against him,” the text read.
