FBI detains 3 men trying to enter Port of Miami

Associated Press

MIAMI - The FBI detained three men who were caught Sunday trying to enter the Port of Miami.

A truck driver raised suspicions when he made inconsistent statements at the port's delivery entrance, FBI spokeswoman Judy Orihuela said Sunday.

"At some point he said he was alone," Orihuela said. Police stopped the truck and found two more men in the truck cab.

The men, all of Middle Eastern descent, were in the country legally, Orihuela said.

The port's cargo area was closed while authorities investigated.

In the sleeper cab?

Any word yet on how this truck fits in or rather why it was at the port? I'm not clear anymore whether this is a inbound container being picked up... or was it outgoing? or was the truck there at the port for something else?

Were these guys already in the sleeper cab when the truck came in? That's an interesting possibility... not a people smuggling story but some other plot?

Thanks for the advice, though I intend to ignore it.

Thought you would.

"Now saying the 2 men were not in the back. They were in the sleeper cab."

Fox News reporting than no-one has searched the 'cargo' area of the truck and no-one is around or has been around the truck.

Whether the truck was entering the port, or leaving would be very important I would imagine.

I had the same thought, but so far, no idea. The cargo area of the port is closed and they haven't approached the truck to check its cargo yet.

"Have they said what he was supposed to be hauling?"


Not that I've heard. All they have said is that is has not yet been searched and that there is yellow police tape near the front and rear of the truck.

Either waiting for a search warrant, or the moon suits.

If nukes are involved in this at all, and these three were here LEHALLY, I predict there will be a quashing of this story for two reasons:

1. Prevent panic and the public's sudden realization that democrats are NOT competent.

2. Prevent a wholesale demand that legal Middle Easterners be deported.

Don't know. Maybe the radiation detectors detected something. All speculation at this point. Peculiar that the cargo area hasn't been searched or approached...maybe waiting for ABC guys?
