FBI Investigating Unusual Ferry Passengers
KIRO NEWS ^ | 8-21-07 | KIRO News

SEATTLE -- The Seattle Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Washington Joint Analytical Center are asking for the public’s help identifying two individuals who have been seen aboard Washington state ferries on several occasions.

According to authorities, the two men have exhibited unusual behavior while aboard the ferries.

Numerous passengers have reported the strange behavior.

The FBI and WAJAC said the behavior may be innocuous but they would like to resolve the reports.

The story has photos of the men. This was also reported on KIRO News Radio this morning. The story does not go into detail on what the "unusual behavior" was, but on past reports which go back I think a couple of years, I have heard that Arab looking men have been seen video taping parts of the ship that tourist just don't video.

Now that it is known what these men look like - why I ask, are these men not detained for questioning? Someone took these photos. Why were they aloud to leave the ship without some sort of questioning? The WA State Ferries are watched pretty heavily by Port Police, who take bomb sniffing dogs through the area where cars are queuing up for boarding. Each car also has to go through a ticket booth with an employee who should have these photos right in front of them. What will it take to have these men detained?

I guess it’s too much to hope concerned citizens drop them over the side.

“””can’t be politically incorrect..”””

Yes you can! Turns out to be just two gay men from S.F. wanting to start a fleet of their own!!!!

I'm sure there are full blue prints available on all these vessels. There's something else here...

The one in our area had an escort and no boats were allowed within a certain range.

I'm trying to think of a benefit to hijacking a ferry and pulling something off in a timely manner. "Out of the box", I can envision a suitcase carry on to bypass a border search.
