FLINT, Mich. -- A man suspected in a series of stabbings in Virginia and Michigan that resulted in at least 20 attacks and five deaths was arrested at the Atlanta airport as he tried to board a plane bound for Israel.

Authorities said the man was taken into custody at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta Airport at 10 p.m. on Wednesday.

Haven't seen much posted on this story on FR.

This is a typical MSM-style media adventure.

A man has stabbed 20 and killed 5 in the Flint, Michigan area.

Most of the victims were African-American.

The police released a sketch of the suspect, described as white, and he looked to be a good ol' boy in a trucker hat and a handlebar mustache in the sketch.

Now it turns out that the man fled to Leesburg, Virginia and then to Atlanta where he was caught boarding a plane for Tel Aviv.

His name has not been released and he is described as a "citizen of Israel."

Most "citizens of Israel" living in the Flint area are Palestinian Arabs.

Is this guy a terrorist with a new technique? The media has no analysis to offer.

Be nice if we at least had his name.

This must be pre detail release spin.

Ping.

"Most "citizens of Israel" living in the Flint area are Palestinian Arabs."

This dude was apparently an employee at some convenience store. Fits the "don't profile taze me bro" profile.

Thank you!

Elias Abu Elazam - interesting.

Could be Arab Christian or Arab Muslim.

I only posted the main link, rather than the story link because there are dozens of different stories about the guy there.

Of interest to you...Ping

That was great. Ton of information there.

[Da Coyote]

The press did not provide a name.

Therefore, the perp was someone the MSM doesn’t wish to accuse... in this case, it appears that he was an Arab.

Libs are so darned predictable.

Seems like the name is Abuelazam.

Doesn't sound very Jewish to me, LOL.

“After the word went out that the man was on the loose in Flint, detectives in Leesburg, Va., investigating three stabbings reached out to the Michigan State Police on Sunday and began sharing information.”

Whatever happened to using non-metro-sexual expressions like “contacted” instead of “reached out to”. Geez, this reporter must smoke a pipe or something.

Mohammedan was the first thing to come to mind when I first heard this story. Stabbings as described were a popular pastime among Mohammedans when I worked in Jerusalem. Specifically, in the “Old City.” Its dark and crowded passageways gave ample opportunity for the usual suspects to emerge from the shadows, make a quick and unseen thrust with a blade, and then disappear in the flowing crowd. It got so bad at one point, the U.S. Consulate issued a warning to visitors not to wear baseball caps, or conduct themselves in a manner which might reveal their U.S. nationality. Those of us working there were required to notify the Consulate whenever we entered the Old City, and again after we exited. If I were a betting man, I'd say this clown attempted to trigger a race war. Anybody wanna’ bet his handlers will go for an even bigger target for the same purpose?

Libs are so darned predictable.

It reminds me of the Muslim sniper killings in DC.

Portray the killer - when you have no evidence to support such a theory - as a conservative white guy (I mean, the police sketch looks like some trucker you'd run into in a honkytonk dive bar) and play down the actual background of the non-conservative, non-white killer when he is caught.

I heard last night that the majority of his victims were Black...is this still believed to be the case?

"The man didn't display an unusual or angry attitude
toward African American customers", he said.
The serial stabber had been targeting black men.

Beecher residents listen as Abdullah Farah, manager of Kingwater Market,
as he talks with the press about the man suspected of stabbing 16 people
in Genesee County, killing five of them, that was arrested this morning
that worked for him from July 5 to Aug. 1 and was originally from Israel.

20 victims, 17 were African-American.
