San Bernardino shooter Syed Farook’s longtime neighbor, Enrique Marquez, recently revealed that he and Farook had planned to attack Riverside City College, a school they had previously attended, in 2011.
Marquez was charged with conspiracy to provide support for terrorists on Dec. 17, and in an affidavit released by federal prosecutors said that he and Farook planned to throw pipe bombs into the college’s cafeteria, reports ktla.com.
The FBI assured RCC officials that “there is absolutely no credible threat whatsoever,” according to the website.
"It's frightening but it's also, in any educational system in the United States this could happen," Riverside Community College District Board President Virginia Blumenthal told ktla.com.
As reported recently by FoodService Director, bomb dogs swept schools in the San Bernardino City Unified School District after learning that Farook had visited nine of them through his job as a health inspector for the county’s Environmental Health Services.
Although nothing out of the ordinary was found, Linda Bardere, the district’s spokeswoman, said the matter was done as “an extra precaution.”
