An alleged ISIS aspirant from Texas was arrested Tuesday after his family convinced him to return home by telling him that his mom’s health was failing. Asher Abid Khan, a 20-year-old from Spring, Texas, was arrested on charges that he plotted to join the terrorist group and spoke with a Turkey-based recruiter.
