We uncover more dirtbags as the days go by, but sadly only after they have done some real damage. Enter scumbag extraordinaire, Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, 24, who had changed his name from Carlos Leon Bledsoe after converting to the Muslim faith. He was under investigation by the FBI's Joint Terrorist Task Force since his return from Yemen, yes a fertile breeding ground for terrorists.
According to sources, the suspect advised them that he was going to kill as many Army personnel as possible. At the time of the shooting, the subject had approximately 200 rounds of ammunition available, police said.So you see, this dirtbag was caught at the right moment before he did more damage. This is still fluid and there is more to come.....
According to a police report, Muhammad told police he saw two uniformed U.S. soldiers in front of the recruiting office before he shot and killed Pvt. William Long, 23, and wounded Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula, 18, while they were taking a break outside the U.S. Army recruiting station where they both worked. Source: ABC News
Here we go. Another day, another burst of gun violence. According to media reports, one person is dead, another seriously injured, and a third is in custody following a double shooting in west Little Rock this morning. Authorities have said that the incident occurred around 10:00 a.m. at a U.S. Army Navy Career Center inside the Ashley Square Shopping Center at 9112 North Rodney Parham Road.
According to Lt. Terry Hastings with the Little Rock Police Department, two enlisted soldiers standing outside the office were hit when the unidentified suspect drove up and began shooting. Both of the wounded were taken to a nearby hospital, where one of the victims died a short time later, according to police.This story is still developing. More to come.
The suspect led police on a brief pursuit towards downtown Little Rock, before being taken into custody in the area of the Interstate 30/630 interchange. According to the Little Rock Fire Department, a bomb squad was called to the scene to investigate a suspicious package inside the suspect's vehicle. Hastings said a little after noon that investigators had not yet questioned the suspect. Police were still at the recruiting office processing evidence from the crime scene.
Hastings said he did not know whether the recruiting office was specifically targeted by the attacker or randomly chosen.Neither the victims nor suspects were named by authorities. According to Army Lt. Col. Thomas F. Artis, the two victims were not recruiters, but part of a recruiting program called "Hometown Recruiting Assistance." Artis says recruiters use soldiers to tell their stories and talk to potential recruits while they are visiting or based back in their home region. Artis says both soldiers had been previously deployed to either Iraq or Afghanistan, but couldn't offer any further details. Source: KATV
