Bell County SWAT teams barricaded and evacuated a downtown Killeen apartment complex where Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan lived before authorities say he killed 13 people and injured 30 more during a massacre at Fort Hood Thursday.... In the morning, neighbors said Hasan handed Qurans and donated his furniture to anyone who would take it.
Demolitions team went over the apartment inch by inch first before there was open access for investigators. Main concern has been if he had any buddies around in the area and who they might be - wanted to ID and put the clamp on them damn quick if there was. There were armed tactical assets on standby inside and outside the base through the night last night with roving patrol units that did nothing but circle the outside perimeter roads. LE all over the entire county were very alert, proactive and pissed off. Last night was not a night to be a "suspicious acting person" anywhere in the county.
I just pray that there aren't any copy-cat attacks at any other bases, or anywhere else for that matter. If authorities in other places are aware of any Hasan-type character in their midst they need to throw a net over the bastard asap before they go over a jihad cliff taking innocent folk with them.
Correct me if I am wrong but didn't the trooper(don't know if he was a Marine/Soldier/Sailor) you have pictured on your homepage die?
