Former Army Vet Accused of Planned Attack | Oakland News

A former Army private, 43-year-old Andrew Arrabaca, is facing serious charges after allegedly staging a terrifying attack outside a NYC federal building—setting off fireworks, firing a BB rifle, and igniting a stairwell with gasoline. Footage captured the chaos during the day, with people nearby. Prosecutors claim he planned this since January, traveling to acquire weapons including axes, knives, and incendiary devices. He’s been jailed without bail due to the high risk, and his next court date is August 4th. Authorities say this was a calculated, dangerous act—not a random outburst.
