Ali analyzes white supremacist plot targeting Baltimore

Javed Ali, ABC News: "Power grid targets have long been the focus of domestic extremists here in the United States.

Other extremists in the past have thought about different ways of attacking energy targets in the United States, whether through explosive devices, small arms attacks or some combination of those."
