FBI Nabs 1 of 3 Fugitives in Probe of Islamic Radical Group


[Detroit Free Press] Ben Schmitt, Robin Erb and Tammy Stables Battaglia - The FBI asked the public for help in finding two suspects who remain at large, and could be dangerous, after Wednesday's raids in Detroit and Dearborn that resulted in a shootout and killing of Luqman Ameen Abdullah, the head of a radical Islamic fundamentalist group. Still at large are Yassir Ali Khan and Mohammad Alsahli. Eight others were arrested during the raids. Detroit FBI Agent in Charge Andrew Arena said Abdullah was armed and opened fire during the raid. Jihad El-Jihad, who said he belongs to Al-Haqq mosque, said its members have strong opinions about the world. "I envy that man [Abdullah]. I admire that man. I can only hope that if I'm in the same situation, I have the courage to go like he did," El-Jihad said.
