A federal grand jury has returned an indictment against a Virginia man, alleging he plotted and took steps to kill congregants at a church in Park Valley in September.

Rui Jiang, 35, of Falls Church, was charged last month in a federal complaint alleging he posted online threats against church congregants last fall. On Wednesday, federal prosecutors secured a new indictment, under a new federal case number, alleging Mr. Jiang not only threatened churchgoers but that his threats also included an attempt to kill.
