Indonesian inspired by ISIS had weapons, ammo
None
JAKARTA - Indonesian authorities on Friday said an ISIS-inspired militant who injured three police officers this week on the outskirts of the capital, Jakarta, had prepared several pipe bombs and owned live ammunition and weapons.
Thursday's attack was the latest in a series of incidents linked to ISIS in the world's largest Muslim-majority nation this year, as concerns grow over a resurgence in homegrown militancy.
Police found bomb-making materials, live ammunition, and a samurai sword during a search of the militant's house, a national police spokesman said.
"He had prepared several of those pipe bombs," the spokesman, Boy Rafli Amar, told a news conference. "We are now investigating who he has been in communication with."
