NYC Subway Mass Shooter Was on FBI Terror Watch List, NYPD Announce ‘Person of Interest’ in Nationwide Manhunt [ussanews.com]:

The NYC subway mass shooter, who opened fire on unsuspecting passengers while at a Brooklyn station, was on the FBI’s terror watch list until 2019.

“The suspect in the Brooklyn subway shooting was on the FBI’s terrorist radar in New Mexico until 2019, according to a report – and was cleared after ‘multiple interviews’,” the Daily Mail reported.

“The shooter has not yet been publicly identified and he remains on the loose hours after opening fire on a busy northbound N train as it approached 36th Street in Sunset Park,” the Mail added.

Federal law enforcement has failed to release a photo or name of the suspect, exceedingly odd behavior for a manhunt. However, a “person of interest” has arisen. The person of “interest” has been identified as one Frank James.

“Frank James rented a U-Haul van tied to the N train attack in Sunset Park and is being sought for questioning, police said at an evening briefing,” the Post added.

“The key to the van was found at the scene of the crime, as was a credit card that rented the vehicle out of Philadelphia, cops and law-enforcement sources said,” the story added.

It is unclear if James is the suspected gunman, the NYPD told the Post.

Andy Ngo looked into Frank James’ social media background and found that he was a virulent black nationalist, much like the Waukesha parade attacker [beckernews.com].

Like the Waukesha suspect & the Louisville BLM activist who allegedly tried to assassinate a mayoral candidate, he appeared to be a fan of black nationalism. pic.twitter.com/aUQZGakJfW [t.co]

Like the Waukesha suspect & the Louisville BLM activist who allegedly tried to assassinate a mayoral candidate, he appeared to be a fan of black nationalism.”

There was more information reported about James’ connection to the U-Haul van found by police authorities.

“The gunman had been on the run for hours before police uncovered a crucial clue: the van, which had Arizona plates and was located on West Third Street near Kings Highway late Tuesday afternoon,” sources told the Post.

“Police have launched a massive manhunt for the shooter and revealed that surveillance cameras at the Sunset Park subway station were not working at the time of the assault,” the Post noted. “Law enforcement sources told The Post that the cameras tend to go out ‘from time to time’.”

More information about the attack surfaced, and was reported by Becker News contributor Real Mac Report.
