(CNN) A white South Carolina man is accused of trying to hire a hit man through a white supremacist group to kill his black neighbor. Brandon Cory Lecroy, 25, of Hodges, was arrested in April after he contacted the white supremacist group, and then made an arrangement with an undercover FBI agent to carry out his plan, authorities say in federal court documents. Prosecutors didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. It wasn't clear whether Lecroy has an attorney. A probable cause affidavit doesn't say how Lecroy came in contact with the undercover agent, or why he allegedly wanted his neighbor dead.
