The man who caused Fort Braggs All American gate to be closed for several hours Tuesday has been arrested and will have a detention hearing at 9 a.m. Tuesday in Raleigh to face charges related to obstruction of justice.
Nouran Ahmad Shihab Sueidan was seen by a magistrate of the U.S. District Court of North Carolina on Wednesday.
An affidavit presented to the judge from the investigator of Fort Braggs Military Police Investigations and Provost Marshal Office states at about 10:30 a.m. Tuesday that Sueidan attempted to access Fort Bragg.
Sueidan allegedly refused to provide identification to gate guards.
The gate guards informed Sueidan that he could not enter Fort Bragg without producing identification, at which point he insisted that he needed to enter Fort Bragg, the investigator said in the affidavit.
Sueidan later provided an expired Jordanian passport, an expired Texas drivers license, expired vehicle registration and no proof of vehicle insurance.
The investigator said the gate guard expressed concern about the passport and visas legitimacy, which appeared to have handwritten modifications.
Sueidan was asked to turn around and to go the nearby visitors center to have his identification verified.
Law enforcement officials at the visitors center noticed Sueidans vehicle registration was expired and confirmed through a database that his drivers license was expired.
When Sueidan was informed that he would not be able to enter Fort Bragg, he insisted that he had a foreign military identification and that he needed to make entry to the installation to take a tour of the Special Operations facility to identify if it was worth his time, the investigator wrote in the affidavit.
The investigator said Sueidan became agitated and insisted that all he wanted to do was tour the special operations facility.
Officers at the scene detained him for his safety and the safety of others, the investigator said.
Sueidan initially turned around and put his hands behind his back, but resisted being detained when the first handcuff was in place and start swinging his right arm away, the investigator said.
The investigator said Sueidan also made comments several times about needing to know the time and said at (noon), we will be happy, at (noon) the weather will change, as he looked around in different directions.
The traffic investigator requested a canine conduct a search of Sueidans vehicle, which would be towed because of insufficient registration and proof of insurance.
An officer noticed that Sueidan was looking out window and smiling and studying what officers were doing and he kept asking what position everyone was in, the investigator wrote in the affidavit.
The canine showed a change in behavior, that indicated the possible existence of explosive material around the drivers side rear door of the vehicle, the investigator said.
Explosive ordnance disposal teams confirmed no explosives were inside the vehicle, the investigator said.
Sueidan was taken to the law enforcement center, where he again said he needed to know the address and location of the special operations facility for a tour to identify if it was worth his time, the investigator said.
He also stated that he wanted to know how to make entry to the installation in the future and what he needed to make entry to the Special Operations facility, the investigator wrote.
The investigator said he refused to make any more statements, refused to sign government forms, refused to be processed and refused to enter the detention cell.
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has lodged a detainer against Sueidan, a spokesman for the agency said.
The detainer requests local authorities to notify ICE if Sueidan is released from criminal custody.
(ICE) will seek to take him into custody for removal proceedings following the resolution of the criminal charges he currently face, said Bryan Cox, a spokesman for the agencys southern region.
Either Nouran Ahmad Shihab Sueidan is a complete moron or he was probing the gates so he can report back to his overseer.
He may be a little of the former, but I’ll he is doing a lot of the latter.
take a tour of the Special Operations facility to identify if it was worth his time,
Worth his time to do what?
"Sueidan was asked to turn around and to go the nearby visitors center to have his identification verified."
Only because he was Muslim. Anyone else would have been detained on the spot.
I am suspecting a dry run.
Might require a bit of the ol’ “enhanced interrogation” to answer that question.
A low IQ terrorist?
Sueidan just recently beat Captain Kirks record time on the Kobayashi Maru, hes just looking for a fresh challenge.
I hope local cops don’t notify ICE and just let him go to be free. Thank goodness for sanctuary cities.
Fatal training accidents are a sad fact of life in the military...
Run of the mill psych ward patient.
...turn the canine loose on the POS.
“The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency has lodged a detainer against Sueidan, a spokesman for the agency said.

ICE should be “disbanded as currently constituted, and re-established with completely new leadership and rules regarding the detention of illegals and potential terrorists that assure that they are ALWAYS taken into custody, processed and completely disposed of!
Nouran Ahmad Shihab Sueidan demanded to view fort bragg to find out if it was ‘worth his time’- Gee- what could possibly go wrong? Golly, That’s not a nefarious request at all. s/
Why is Nouran Ahmed Sihab Sueidan in this country ?!?!
Doing business with Muslims/Arabs, especially those not educated or experienced in Western culture, they have two strategies - very meek and mild, or overtly aggressive.
Its cultural, where everything is about “power” and perceptions of it - and in his Muslim/Arab world view, “meek and mild” would not cut it at the gates of Fort Bragg. So he took the aggressive approach instead.
Indeed
“Why is Nouran Ahmed Sihab Sueidan in this country ?!?!”
Because he needed to see the Ft Bragg Special Operations Facility
Maybe he was considering enlisting. Those special op's guys are a little crazy;)
Jihadists are getting brazen.
Why not?
They now have representation in Congress.
