These aren't confirmed, but I heard on FoxNews

Somebody called the tipline to report Muhamed told them details about the case
only police should know.

John Muhamed stayed near the house where authoriteis
retrieved the tree stump.. bullets in the stump were found to be similar to those of the sniper.

Sniper hinted to police (in one of they letters? that they did a crime
in Montgomery, ALabama

A liquor store was robbed in Montgomery ALabma, where two people were shot, one killed
2 weeks before sniper killings started.

A credit card was stolen during the robery.. it had the same card number as the card the sniper wanted
police to send $10 million to.

Police somehow linked Muhamed to Alabama .. (he does look like the police sketch of the Alabama suspect)
(Maybe he told the person that reported him about Alabama?)UPDATE: Mohamed was linked to Militia Training Camps in ALa.

FOxNews reports that sources have told them "John Muhamed is the key suspect".. and had been detained
in Frederick MD along with Lee Malvo

All remember the wave of random street killings that terrorized San Francisco in 1973. The "Zebra killers" struck without warning, murdering whites at night. Most victims were shot. One was raped, another beheaded. Four young black Muslims were arrested in 1974 and charged with 14 murders, seven assaults, one rape, and an attempted kidnapping. The Zebra killers were convicted in 1976.

Yes, apparently. However, I'm concerned about the last name - Muhammad. I'm not trying to sterotype, but I really hope this is not "terrorist related" to al Queda.

Kudos needs to go to the observant people who spotted the Chevrolet Caprice parked at a rest area and tipped the police off. Apparently, these two individuals were sleeping when the police arrived.

It is believed that Mr. Muhammad was traveling with his 17-year-old stepson. So much for "family values." :(

Supposedly, John Allen Muhamed aka John Allen Williams

attended Militia Training Camps in Alabama

that have been linked to some AL-Queada going there to train, but not ran by Al-Queada.

ALso, it was reported that "US Officials go to this camp for training, sometimes

More reports.


JOhn Muhamed and Lee Malvo were seen slleping in a car at a rest stop
on Oct 9 by Baltimore police, but let go however
the incident was noted.

John Mohamed's car plates were reported at one of the sniper scenes, and
that traced back to the Baltimore incident

Lee Malvo was suspected in Richmond, and stayed at a hotel room near
the phone booth where the sniper called from, but police went to the wrong phone booth
and picked up the Mexican immigrants by mistake.
They did extract DNA evedence from the Econolodge hotel room Malvo stayed in.

FoxNews reports that the sniper weopon may have been found in John Muhamed's
car that was picked up tonight when police caught them in Frederick MD

...police found a piece of paper at the scene of the Montgomery shooting that bore Malvo's fingerprints. Police then traced Malvo to a Tacoma house where he had been living with Williams, the paper said...

I hope these are the guys.

Just a thought......... do you think terrorist cells in US or other countries will take this idea of serial snipers & use it to cause wide spread terror? That would be crazy having 6-10 different terror cells sniping around the country.

Cheers,
