KS National Guardsman Indicted for Allegedly Spying for Russia
Canyon Anthony Amarys, a Kansas National Guard member, has been arrested and charged with attempting to violate the Export Control Reform Act. Allegedly, Amarys met with a suspected Russian intelligence agent and agreed to photograph a Fort Riley military installation and obtain a helicopter radio for the Russian military. As part of this agreement, Amarys purchased the radio in March 2025 and traveled to Kansas to send it to Romania. These actions violated U.S. export laws.
