FDNY Routine Investigation; Middle Eastern Man Caught with Subway Maps
http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/news/wabc_061305_subwayman.html
A Middle Eastern man is being questioned after he was caught with others in possession of maps and sketches of the subway system. Police tell Eyewitness News, the man was caught during a fire department inspection of a previous violation at a bodega at 1173 Broadway in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn at noon yesterday.
The man was part of a group of five or six Middle Eastern men discovered during the follow-up inspection of a faulty sprinker.
When firefighters made a more thorough check of the building, they found drawings of city tunnels and subway entrances on notebook paper. There were also several fake identification belonging to the man taken into custody.
According to the FDNY, the men appeared to be acting suspiciously and attempting to hide the materials, so firefighters called the police.
The other men then fled the building.

This is actually news, but we'll never hear about it on the alphabet TV stations evening news shows, nor will our newspapers report it. The only place we'll know such things is right here. Wouldn't want to offend the ME population or its activist defenders you know!
Just another reason profiling should be reconsidered (does the town Lodi ring a bell?) Thanks for posting it!
