A British neo-Nazi who police said was radicalised online from the age of 14 has been jailed for 13 years and six months after attempting to buy a handgun and 200 rounds of ammunition from undercover officers for £3,500 as part of a planned terrorist attack.
Alfie Coleman, 22, from Great Notley, Essex, believed he was about to take possession of a Makarov semi-automatic pistol, five magazines and 200 rounds of ammunition during an undercover operation involving Counter Terrorism Policing and MI5 in September 2023. Prosecutors said he intended to carry out a mass shooting motivated by an extreme right-wing ideology.
