You're right. However, this is in the article:
Residents living near the warehouse said the men taken into custody described themselves as Muslims and had tried to recruit young people to join their apparently militaristic group.

The residents said FBI agents spent several hours in the neighborhood showing photos of the suspects and seeking information. They said the men, who appeared to be in their teens or 20s, had lived in the area about a year.

The men slept in the warehouse, said Tashawn Rose, 29. "They would come out late at night and exercise. It seemed like a military boot camp that they were working on there. They would come out and stand guard."

She talked to one of the men about a month ago: "They seemed brainwashed. They said they had given their lives to Allah."

It was there at the point where I copy/pasted the first three paragraphs. The article says it was "UPDATED: 12:50 am CDT ", and probably then is when the reference was deleted. Part of the value of FR is the preservation of original articles from "historical revision".

The arrested people are evidently Black and also Muslim, but evidently the news media do not currently want to say anything about their being "Black Muslims", as in "Nation of Islam"
