Apprehension team awaiting Federal Warrant to search the vehicle.

Weapon found in vehicle may be same as that used in the sniper murders.

Connect-the-dots began when a fingerprint on one of the notes or tarot card showed up to match a fingerprint in the Alabama murder/robbery of a liquor store a couple of months ago. Also, credit card sniper wanted the $10m credited to was matched to the victim of that same Ala murder/robbery.

Well it looks like the whiplashing may subside a bit. From the name Mohammed, we can take the likely shooter as a follower of Islam. It also seems that authorities feel he trained at a camp in Alabama, called Camp Zero, which offered combat training to a wide assortement of people, including, according to Rita Cosby on FOX, government personel. Mohammed also had either ten or fifteen years of service in the military, including sniper training.

So, there is a Islam connection to a home grown nut. Go figure... we

Good morning, guys! Eyes popped open, and I said to myself..check FR! Always open for business around here..grins.

So it was the credit card they stole in a liquer murder/robbery that tied them in to all of this..

Then, the idiots decide to do us a favor and take a cat nap?

It just keeps getter better and better!

Cops seem pretty confident that these are the guys. They have fingerprint evidence which connects the stepson to
the credit card that the shooters asked be used to transfer the ten mil. The car they were arrested in was seen leaving
one of the murder scenes.

We have fingerprints that tied the 17 year old to the murder/robbery/ credit card theft. Thumbprint.

Cool, huh.

I got up at 4:45 & Fox & Friends was already on. Rita Cosby is still in the same clothes she was wearing last night. I don't think she's slept at all!

Then, the idiots decide to do us a favor and take a cat nap? Isn't that unbelievable? I know that's just what I'd want to do in that situation. Yes sir, the jig is up and my picture is about to be plastered all over the country and what do I decide to do?? Take a nap of course!
