The men said they were immigrants, but each displayed Michigan driver's licenses, police said.

Zakutashvili told police he was in the country illegally, Tappe said. Maisuradze claimed to have a visa, but he said he had forgotten to bring it with him.

The prepaid cell phones, which the men had recently purchased in Monroeville and Murrysville, were found inside the van. Also in the van were a laptop computer and global-positioning software.

First, Georgia isn't Russia.

Second, as I wrote before, of course you want to keep your eyes open for all suspicious people and activity.

But, as we try to treat everyone equally in our anti-terrorist efforts, middle-eastern young adult males continue to be the bulk of the threat.
