The FBI is assisting with an investigation into last week’s toppling of a Verizon cell tower in Furnas County, Nebraska, the Kansas City Star reports on what sure sounds like right wing domestic terrorism given the similarity to the recent spate of attacks on power infrastructure.
Guy wires supporting the tower were found to have been intentionally severed to take the tower down, according to a press release from the Furnas County sheriff’s office. At this point the FBI is assisting the locals but are considering escalating it to a domestic terror investigation.
