In Wilmington, Delaware, a concerning incident has unfolded as a University of Delaware student, 25-year-old Luqmaan Khan, was apprehended with an arsenal of weapons and detailed sketches outlining the layout of the campus police department. This development has raised alarms across the university community.

Khan’s arrest occurred shortly before midnight on November 24, marking the start of an intense investigation. The university has confirmed his status as an undergraduate student, and interim president Laura Carlson has announced that Khan is banned from all university campuses during the ongoing probe into the situation.

The arrest took place during a routine police check at a local park, where officers discovered Khan’s white Toyota Tacoma parked after hours. When approached, Khan allegedly resisted police requests to exit his vehicle, leading to his subsequent arrest.

Upon searching the vehicle, authorities uncovered a loaded handgun, several extended magazines, body armor, a laptop, and binoculars among Khan’s possessions. This alarming discovery has prompted heightened scrutiny and concern regarding potential threats to campus safety.

He was taken into custody after police say he refused to exit his vehicle and resisted arrest.

Police searched the Tacoma and found several items inside, including a loaded handgun, extended magazines, body armor, a laptop and binoculars.

They also found a notebook, which allegedly contained notes on warfare techniques, assault plans, and a diagram of the University of Delaware Police Department.

According to police, the notebook also mentioned a member of the University of Delaware Police Department by name and included a drawing of the department’s building with entry and exit points.

Federal authorities were contacted and searched his home, where they allegedly found a handgun equipped with an illegal “switch” to convert it into a machine gun.

Khan has been charged with several felony weapons charges, including possession of a large capacity magazine and carrying a concealed deadly weapon.

He has since been turned over to the FBI for additional criminal charges.
