North Carolina: Driver deliberately hits and kills 79-year-old woman, tries to hit four others in “random” attack

Police “have not revealed a motive in the case.” In light of the fact that “there is no known connection between Alshabani and any of the victims,” is it possible that this was vehicular jihad attack? Sawan Ibrahim Alshabani’s surname is common in Saudi Arabia. And the Islamic State issued this call in September 2014:
So O muwahhid, do not let this battle pass you by wherever you may be. You must strike the soldiers, patrons, and troops of the tawaghit. Strike their police, security, and intelligence members, as well as their treacherous agents. Destroy their beds. Embitter their lives for them and busy them with themselves. If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be….If you are not able to find an IED or a bullet, then single out the disbelieving American, Frenchman, or any of their allies. Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him….
Shouldn’t this possibility at least be investigated? Of course, but it probably won’t be. Leftists have placed such a stigma on all opposition to jihad terror that even looking into this possibility would constitute “Islamophobia,” which the police who would be conducting the investigation know would be a surefire career-killer.
“Driver charged with murder of 79-year-old in deadly Aldi hit-and-run booked into jail,” WCNC, October 21, 2019 (thanks to the Geller Report):
MATTHEWS, N.C. — The woman accused of killing a 79-year-old woman with her car last week outside an Aldi grocery store in Matthews has been arrested.
Sawan Alshabani, 54, of Charlotte, was booked into the Mecklenburg County Jail Monday. She is charged with one count of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted first-degree murder and two counts of assault with a deadly weapon.
Investigators said 79-year-old Vira Nahorna was putting groceries in her car when Alshabani hit her and tried to run down four others. Those four people were not hurt, police said last week.
“Driver ‘intentionally’ tried to hit 5 people at store, kills 79 year old, NC cops say,” by Mark Price and Joe Marusak, Charlotte Observer, October 18, 2019 (thanks to the Geller Report):
Authorities say the killing of a 79-year-old pedestrian in an Aldi parking lot in Matthews was intentional, and police believe the accused woman tried to run down at least four other people before fleeing the scene.
Investigators identified the suspect as 54-year-old Sawan Alshabani of Matthews, who turned herself into police an hour after hitting the other woman. Alshabani was under “medical evaluation” at a hospital for a week before being arrested on Oct. 21, Matthews Police Chief Clark Pennington said.
She is charged with multiple offenses including first-degree murder in the death of Vira Hryhorniva Nahorna, Pennington said….
“As a result of numerous statements and after evaluating the evidence, we can say with a level of certainty that the collision with Miss Nahorna was no accident,” he said. “In fact, the suspect in this case not only intentionally struck Miss Nahorna but attempted to strike at least four other people in the parking lot.”…
“The driver of the vehicle initially left the scene and contacted Matthews Police Department Communications a short time later to meet with officers,” according to a police news release.
Investigators have not revealed a motive in the case, but Pennington said investigators believe “this was a random, isolated incident, and there has been no ongoing threat to our community.”
“This was random and isolated,” said Matthews Police Chief Clark Pennington. “There is no known connection between Alshabani and any of the victims.”
Is the driver a member of a certain middle eastern religion?
The religion of peace strikes again. And the police chief is a damn liar. But believe what you will.
either Muslim, Antifa, or both.

Yep, nothing to see here. Move on, citizens.
His name is Sawan Alshabani.
Beto will want all cars banned today!!!
Didn’t read your own post, did ya?
Yep. Had it pegged at the headline. We just keep letting sickos into the country.
James Smith, right?

“This happened in Matthews, a generally upscale suburb of Charlotte, NC.”
IOW, a Leftist-dominated county with a Leftist Police Chief.
You stated...
“His name is Sawan Alshabani”
Perp is a female.
A muzzard is a muzzard.
The deceased was born in the Ukraine.
A female is not a he.
Take some pride in posting here.
That is an interesting name from the Ukraine.
I bet the driver loved the video game Grand Theft Auto V. I have it.
That’s one thing you do in the game, run down people.
The sounds and commentary are hilarious. You could get a dumptruck or an 18 wheeler and go crazy mowing people down. But I prefer a motorcycle, easier to evade the cops.
A mentally unstable person though would transfer this to real life. Sounds like we got one here.
