Michael Alan Thomas and Bryan Omar Roa, both residents of Riverside County in California, have been identified as two of five suspects arrested following an alleged plot to attack the UFC Freedom 250 event held on the South Lawn of the White House on 15 June 2026. Both men were charged with conspiracy to commit murder and made their initial court appearances on Monday in Riverside.
The five men arrested also include Ohio resident Tycen Proper, Missouri resident Daniel Eskridge, and a fifth suspect, after the FBI disrupted what officials described as a multiphase attack targeting the event. The historic occasion was part of President Donald Trump's 80th birthday weekend celebrations and drew thousands of spectators, including Cabinet officials and business leaders.
