Stabbing of boy, 9, possible ISIS audition

A student who allegedly plotted a Times Square bomb attack is also suspected in the stabbing of a young boy, as part of an audition to join ISIS.

Police say that last January, 21-year-old Fareed Mumuni stabbed 9-year-old Jermaine Culver in the neck as he was walking to school in Staten Island.

Culver survived the attack but the case went unsolved for some time.

Watch the raw video of the stabbing below:

Recently, Mumuni became a person of interest after being arrested and charged with several terrorist offenses. He is also accused of attempting to stab a Federal agent during a raid on his home in June.

WPIX reports that detectives believe Mumuni providing material support to ISIS, and stabbing Culver was part of a botched audition to join the terrorist group.

He faces 85 years in prison for his purported crimes.
