The Acampo man accused of plotting to help al-Qaida pleaded not guilty Thursday in a federal court.

Nicholas Teasusant, a former San Joaquin Delta College student, also asked for a jury trial during his arraignment.

Teausant is accused of planning to travel to Syria and fight alongside al-Qaida, according to an undercover FBI agent. He was arrested near the Canadian border last month.
