This will probably wrap up the info on the I68 shut down for tonight. We will likely learn more later. What I know so far doesn’t pass the smell test. I’ve pulled info from the twitter CoryGroshek account. I would link it here, but he’s run the entire thing together and even thread reader is complicated to follow. You can look him up or refer to little jeremiah’s post #1540 to read the rest.

FTA:
“A man driving his car 130 mph on I-68 in Preston County allegedly made threats to kill the president & blow up the Pentagon... The possible danger was reinforced by three police dogs indicating the presence of explosives in the car, but none were found.”

“Police have not released the name of the 42-year-old man whose car had Missouri license plates, nor have they listed any charges pending against him.”

“According to a release from State Police 1st Sgt. Geoffrey Petsko in Morgantown, a trooper was traveling on I-68 when a car traveling in excess of 130 mph approached from behind and passed the trooper’s vehicle.”

“The trooper, D.W. Satterfield of the Bridgeport detachment, stopped the vehicle near the eastbound 30-mile marker, and said the driver “appeared to be confused and stressed, and made statements that were concerning.”

“Threats were made to kill the President of the United States and to blow up the Pentagon. A search of the vehicle revealed a firearm and an explosive powder,” media outlets report other State Police officials said, but Petsko did not confirm the presence of a gun.”

“Petsko said the statements, “along with other factors, led TFC Satterfield to believe in the possibility that there was an explosive device present inside the vehicle.”

“While Satterfield removed the man and took him into custody without incident, the decision was made around 11 a.m. to close both sides of I-68 while the vehicle was searched further.”

“Explosives teams from the West Virginia State Police, Maryland State Police and the West Virginia University Police Department responded to the scene.”

“WVU Police Department K-9 handlers Lt. Josh Cook and Sgt. Zack Camden arrived with three explosives-detecting K-9s,” Petsko said. “All three K-9s indicated the presence of explosive materials inside the vehicle.””

“State Police Explosive Response Team members Sgt. M.G. Fordyce and Sgt. A.W. Webb then arrived to search the vehicle.

“No explosive devices were found,” Petsko said. “However, the incident remains under investigation.””

“The car in question was loaded onto a truck and taken under police escort to the Kingwood detachment. That brought an end to the interstate shut down at about 2:30 p.m.”

MKUltra kook?

Or just a garden variety kook?

Assuming that a sane person would be planning to assassinate the President (I know, I know! obviously not sane) he wouldn’t be driving at 130 mph which is almost guaranteed to get him stopped by a cop.

I-68 guy: If you’re on a mission like that, why would you drive 130 mph and draw attention to yourself?

Is this more fakery?

Excellent work! Thank you for the details.

If he was going 130 he would have passed quite a few other people... convenient he passed a trooper to get attention. Arabic sounding name allegedly.

Im betting the car held explosives transferred to another vehicle/delivery device. Dogs (3) wont all alert without cause. Trace chemicals will be found to be present in the vehicle. Pray the person in custody breaks and/or the few remaining F_I good guys can break this case before harm is done!

Prayers up for POTUS and family, our country, and all patriots involved in keeping America Free!

KAG! WWG1WGA!
