WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) - A third Florida man is set to plead guilty in an FBI terrorism sting involving a plot to travel to Syria and fight with the Islamic State extremist group.
Court records filed Monday show a plea agreement has been reached between federal prosecutors and 54-year-old Gregory Hubbard of West Palm Beach. A change of plea hearing is set for next week.
Hubbard previously pleaded not guilty to conspiracy, attempting to provide support to a foreign terrorist organization and selling ammunition to a felon. Details of his plea agreement have not been made public.
