I wonder if this is causing any concern among those folks tasked with keeping an eye on Islam, Muslims, and terrorism?
Somerset County investigators seized a cache of weapons including a grenade launcher and hundreds of rounds of ammunition today from the Branchburg motel room of a Virginia man, who also had maps of a U.S. military facility and an out-of-state civilian community.
Lloyd Woodson, 43, whose last known address was Reston, Va., today faces multiple offenses, including second-degree unlawful weapons possession and fourth-degree possession of prohibited weapons, Somerset County Prosecutor Wayne Forrest said.
As Dan Riehl points out, most sources have dropped the specific word keffiyeh, but
Investigators also found Middle Eastern red and white traditional headdress, Forrest said.
What’s in range of Branchburg, NJ? Well, Woodson could be completely incompetent, and not realize that White House Station is something completely different from the thoughts flowing through his potentially jihad brain. You also have Picatinny Arsenal, Earle Naval Weapons Station, Fort Monmouth, Newark International airport, and, hey, New York City. Of course, he could just be a standard wackjob, but
At the time of his arrest, Woodson was wearing a military-style ballistic vest with a reinforced steel plate and carrying a .223-caliber assault rifle that had been altered to fire .50-caliber ammunition, Forrest. He was also carrying four loaded magazines with hollow-point ammunition, Forrest said.
Detectives later searched Woodson’s room at the Red Mill Inn on Route 22 and found weapons including a .308-caliber semi-automatic assault rifle with a defaced serial number, a grenade launcher, hundreds .50-caliber and .308-caliber rounds, a police scanner, and the maps of a U.S. military installation and an out-of-state civilian community, Forrest said. Woodson, who is a Navy veteran, had been staying at the hotel since last week.
We’ll have to see if anything comes of this.
