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.

Love the caption! "Beecher residents listen?" By their looks and
gestures, it sure looks like they are not there to "listen" to Abdullah.
The name was just recently released. Its in all the "MSM" reports now.
I'll make my prediction: If this perp is a Muslim, media coverage will be made a lower priority.
The first link I posted also links to video.
The cops had to run off an angry crowd.
BEECHER, Michigan — The manager and regular customers of a party store where the suspected Flint serial killer worked said he was a quiet guy who sometimes joked around.
Abdullah Farah, manager of Kingwater Market on Coldwater Road and Detroit Street in Beecher, said the man arrested this morning worked for him from July 5 to Aug. 1 and was originally from Israel.
The man didn’t display an unusual or angry attitude toward African American customers, he said. The serial stabber had been targeting black men.
“I’m shocked,” he said.
“Me and my employees and my sister were all working around this guy,” he said. “If he’s the guy, he should be hanged.”
Farah said the law enforcement task force investigating the case came into his store at 10 a.m. on Wednesday morning asking to see surveillance tapes. The police didn’t leave until 8 p.m. that night, he said.
Farah said the tapes showed the suspect working at the store during his usual shift, 3 p.m.-2 a.m. The tapes didn’t show any unusual behavior, he said.
Farah said the man abruptly stopped working for him Aug. 1 when he said he needed to go visit relatives in Virginia.
“He came in one day and said he needed a job,” Farah said. “I helped him.”

A suspected serial killer captured at the Atlanta airport has been identified as 33-year-old Elias Abuelazam, according to the Flint Journal.
AP / Michigan State Police This image provided by the Michigan State Police shows a composite sketch of a man they say is the Flint stabbing suspect. Authorities in Atlanta arrested a man in connection with a three-state serial stabbing spree.
A tip led Detroit police to the Kingwater Market in Mount Morris Township, Mich. , where the suspect is believed to have worked.

The newspaper confirmed Abuelazam was a suspect in 20 stabbings in three states by checking court records. Flint District Court Judge Tracy Collier-Nix signed a warrant Thursday for his arrest in connection with one of the stabbing cases.
Abuelazam is believed to be the man who was arrested, with an expired Israeli passport, about to board a Delta Air Lines flight to Tel Aviv Wednesday night.

Oh, I agree.
However, this brings up a couple of points that need to be pounded home:
(1) The media places no value on African-American victims of crime unless the perpetrator is a certified "evil white guy."
(2) Black victims of crime will be ignored by the media if foreign Muslims are involved, since the media cares more about them than African-Americans.
(3) Foreign Muslims are not the friends and brothers of African-Americans and their interests are not aligned, despite propaganda to the contrary.
Most of the victims were African-American.
Suspect identified as Elias Abu Elazam.
A Muslim trying to foment racial unrest?
“Elias Abu Elazam”
BWWAAA HAAA
Last night, CNN was tripping over themselves to paint this guy as a white-right racist. FAIL!
Wonder if they’ll be “keeping them honest” tonight?
One wonders.
He may have been hours away from disappearing, leaving investigators with nothing but a sketch of Larry The Cable Guy.
The only Neo-Nazis I have met have been liberal/Marxists. Every one of them ( without exception) has been a racist.
They hate Israel and Jews, and from their behavior, regardless of what comes out of their mouth, it is plainly evident they hate blacks and want them securely trapped on their liberal/Marxist plantations.
The Neo-Nazi liberal/Marxists are also profoundly bigoted toward Christians.
I wonder how many non-Arabs in the local community he has freely offered employment to?

Filed Va worker’s comp claim in ‘05, denied in ‘06 - past statute of limitations. If you can believe it, perp caught his leg in a tarp a la Vince Coleman.
Has listed address in Leesburg. May have been planning to leave Leesburg in June ‘08 - he was trying to find a home for his dog then.
Good find. Thank you!
Leesburg is part of the Beltway Muslim diaspora - but not prominently so.
Thanks much.
Flint warrant says perp has a Bradenton FL address. I’m 100% sure of my Leesburg address, so this would be another one.
Someone jog my memory please - I think Bradenton has a connection to past jihadi activity.
Sami al-Arian?
Golly! What an uncanny resemblance to the “Larry the white Cable Guy” sketch provided to the public!.../Sarc.
