Not far from Rep. Jared Moskowitz’s home, police officers found body armor, smoke grenades and firearms inside the house of a convicted felon, along with a handwritten list of “targets” that included the name of the Florida Democrat.
The Justice Department said it was evidence of a would-be active shooter who was “ready for war” and harbored hatred toward the Jewish community, a “ticking time bomb” who had shot at a Jewish woman’s home about two months before the 911 call prompted the officers to search the felon’s home.
“Someone made a call and saved my life,” Moskowitz said in an interview at his Capitol Hill office this month. “We got lucky.”
