Definitely not a dunker anyway. Sprinkled, maybe.

Oh, by Yumpin Yimminie, it wasn't Sven, nor Mario, wasn't even Axel Anderson Olsen.

[garyhope]

Gosh, I certainly hope they don't violate his "civil rights" by "racially profiling" him or anything like that.

Hey,..wait a minute, that guy looks like my ex-wife's "boyfriend".

Highway Watch® Issues Request for Assistance

Law enforcement seeks person of interest
in connection with tanker incidents

Alexandria, VA--The Highway Watch® program's Highway ISAC has issued a formal Be On the Lookout (BOLO) requesting assistance from members of the trucking and law enforcement community to assist in identifying a person of interest with connection to several reported incidents in the southeastern United States.

The BOLO relates to a series of reports from truck drivers involving suspicious activities by what is believed to be the same person. In three separate incidents truck drivers reported an individual asking several questions about tank truck deliveries and operations.

The individual in question is also reported to have video taped tank truck operations and deliveries as well as taken photographs of tanker equipment. Law enforcement has requested assistance in ascertaining the identity or whereabouts of the person in question.

"The Highway ISAC is working with the Southwest Florida Terrorism Task Force to help resolve the situation as soon as possible," said Don L. Rondeau, Director of the Highway ISAC. "The Highway Watch® is happy to lend our assistance and we look forward to helping law enforcement get to the bottom of these incidents."

Under a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Highway Watch® trains highway professionals to identify and report safety and security concerns on our Nation's roads.

The program prepares hundreds of thousands of transportation professionals to respond in the event they or their cargo are the target of a terrorist attack and to share valuable intelligence with Homeland Security if they witness potential threats.

When a security call is made to the Highway Watch® hotline, a report of the incident is forwarded to the Highway Information Sharing and Analysis Center (Highway ISAC) where a team of transportation security professionals assess and analyze the report.

Incidents that may pose a threat to national security are then shared with government intelligence officials and other law enforcement agencies. Highway Watch® links trained transportation professionals with first responders, law enforcement and the intelligence community via TSA's Transportation Security Operations Center

Highway Watch® has posted photos of the person in question at Highway Watch.org . Anyone with information on the identity or whereabouts of the person in question is encouraged to call the Highway ISAC at 866-821-3444 or email the ISAC .

Today's teamsters and longshoremen are more worried about their bloated health care and retirment programs that are bankrupting their employers.

Looking at that picture and that mustache....makes me wonder if it's not an Iraqi terrorist. When one of my relatives was deployed to Iraq during the beginning of the war, he grew a mustache...he said they all did to fit in. All the men had 'em 'cause of a Saddam required it.

[VeniVidiVici]

OMG! That guy works in the 7/11 down the street! Or maybe it's the one up the street?

[shield]

If you're sure about that...call the authorities!!!

[VeniVidiVici]

LOL! I'm sure they're getting a lot of calls about that right now. ;-)

You can tell a book by it cover. For instance, if it says Al Frankin on the cover you don't even have to read it.

[Irishguy]

Thanks for posting. I hope the reason for their posting of this info to the public is not because they are worried about trying to stop him asap.
