Army Recruiter Killed In Attack On Arkansas Office
NPR.org, June 1, 2009 · One Army recruiter was killed Monday and a second was wounded in a shooting at a recruiting office in Little Rock, Ark. A suspect was arrested, police said.
Police Lt. Terry Hastings said the recruiter was shot when a man in a black SUV opened fire on the office in west Little Rock at about 10:30 a.m.
The vehicle was stopped on Interstate 630 a short time later and a suspect was taken into custody. Hastings said the suspect pulled over and surrendered without incident.
Police said they found an assault rifle in the vehicle.
Hastings said he did not know whether the recruiting office was specifically targeted or was randomly chosen.
Hastings said shortly after noon that investigators had not yet questioned the suspect and that police were still processing evidence from the crime scene.
As a precaution, police also called in a bomb squad because there were packages in the SUV. Hastings said a robot would open the packages.
Authorities did not immediately identify either the victims or the suspect.

RIP Soldier.
Fucking bullshit. Recruiting was the hardest job I had on active duty, and now these guys have to worry about this shit. I hope they fry the shooter quickly.

Recruiter Shooting Suspect Under FBI Investigation Allegedly Confessed
The suspect arrested for the murder of a U.S. Army soldier at a Little Rock, Ark., recruiting booth has allegedly confessed to the attack, according to court documents.
Though police have told ABC News that a preliminary investigation indicated that Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, 24, acted alone, authorities are trying to determine whether others were involved in the Monday shooting that also critically wounded another soldier.
Police could only guess at the motive for Muhammad's attack.
"We believe that it's associated with his disagreement over the military operations," Little Rock Police Chief Stuart Thomas told The Associated Press.
According to a police report, Muhammad told police that 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.

Most likely a Haitian. The group that were sentenced to a plot to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago were all Haitians. So what if their names were Mohammed, Abdul and Dirka-Dirka, the paper never mentioned anything except that they were from Haiti and Miami.Hung Low wrote:Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad...
