The man accused of ramming his car into a Michigan synagogue on Thursday before being killed by security guards was a 41-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen from Lebanon, federal officials said.

Ayman Mohamad Ghazali drove his vehicle into the Temple Israel Synagogue on Thursday afternoon and swiftly encountered security officers who engaged him with gunfire, according to officials. The FBI is investigating the “active shooter situation” as a “targeted act of violence against the Jewish community,” the agency said following the attack.
