A federal grand jury indicted eight individuals, most affiliated with the University of Michigan, on charges related to a year-long series of alleged property crimes and threats aimed at pressuring the university to sever ties with Israel. The FBI arrested seven of the defendants, with the status of the eighth remaining unclear. The indictment describes vandalism, broken windows, and the use of noxious chemicals at residences of university leaders, local businesses, and the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit.
