NEW YORK—A Colorado airport van driver accused of plotting to bomb New York City is going before a Brooklyn judge.

Federal authorities say Najibullah Zazi (nah-jee-BOO’-lah ZAH’-zee) received explosives training from al-Qaida on a trip to Pakistan.

Zazi was due in court Thursday on a charge of conspiring to use weapons of mass destruction. He denies any wrongdoing.

Authorities say Zazi planned a large-scale terrorist attack, possibly on New York City’s transit system.

Court papers allege he bought and tested bomb-making materials in a Denver suburb before traveling to New York.
