An Arizona man allegedly tried to spark a race war ahead of the 2024 election by carrying out a mass shooting at a Bad Bunny concert … so claim the feds, who stopped it.
A new indictment alleges 58-year-old Mark Adams Prieto — who’s white — hatched his plan to gun down Black people and other minorities at a hip hop show in Atlanta in mid-May … and based on the dates the feds mention in their just-unsealed indictment, it lines up with BB’s concert dates.
The FBI says it caught wind of Prieto’s alleged heinous intentions from a confidential informant and dispatched an undercover agent to get close to him during their probe.
The feds claim Prieto recruited the informant and FBI agent to help him launch his attack, thinking they were in lockstep with his racist views on Blacks, Jews and Muslims. The feds specified in the court docs that Prieto wanted to trigger a “race war prior to the 2024 United States Presidential Election.”
Prieto, the feds claim, talked openly about specific details of the alleged planned attack, going so far as to sell a couple of rifles to one of his two “confidantes.” They even attached photos.
