Behavior at Love Field refocus FBI attention on women

DALLAS - With one already considered ‘dangerous’ by the United States government, two women became the center of more critical attention after their alleged actions at Dallas Love Field caught the interest of the FBI and Dallas Police Department.

Sources said in February, Kimberly “Asma” Al-Homsi, 42, and Aisha Abdul-Rahman Hamad, 50, allegedly scoped out Dallas Love Field in a manner classic of surveying an area.

Al-Homsi was already under surveillance and is on the government’s no fly list since being involved in a road rage incident back in December of 2005. Officials said during the incident she held up an inert grenade and threatened another driver. Garland’s bomb squad reported they later found ammunition in her car. (snp)

FBI & Police Investigate Tampered Beef

A case of meat tampering at a North Charleston Super K-Mart has four agencies investigating. North Charleston Police, the FBI, SLED and DHEC are trying to find out who tampered with packaged ground beef in a North Charleston store.

Police say someone took a sharp object and slit open the packaging of several ground beef packages at Super K-Mart. Police found pellets inside the meat. Authorities are not saying what kind of pellets were found, but an officer inspected poisons in the store to make sure there were not additional signs of tampering.

Now, customers are concerned. It was no ordinary day at the grocery store for Customer James Stroble of Goose Creek. He said, “They took all the meat from the stock. They had to check it out.” Count on 2’s Jenny Fisher asked, “So no ground beef on the shelf?” He said, “No meat, nothing.”

Jenny said, “I decided to check things out for myself. I went into this Super K-Mart and, sure enough, all chicken, fish, and beef were removed from the shelves. However, there is a sign saying police are investigating, but mot many details were given.” Customer Lois Jenkins said, “They should let us know. We need to be informed consumers.”

Super K-Mart officials say Wednesday, between the hours of noon and 3:30, someone slit at least three packages of ground beef open. An employee doing a routine inspection found the tampered meat. Police found pellets of some sort inside. Jenkins said, “That’s awful. That’s awful. Its scary to cook and eat anymore.” Jenny asked, “Think so?” She replied, “Yeah, its bad. The dog food and now this.”

K-mart cameras were not on the meat department at the time of the tampering so police, state and federal agencies are investigating a crime that targeted random shoppers. It has Jennifer Lavigne concerned. She said, “Thats very scary. A lot of America eats ground beef.” America...and Lavigne’s four year-old son, Deacon, who loves burgers and meatloaf.

Super K-Mart’s meat department is now open. All beef was disposed of and new products were put on the shelves. However, if you purchased meat from the Super K-Mart Wednesday, you’re asked to return it for a full refund.

“Women at Love Field ‘acting suspiciously’
Dallas: Police have no evidence Muslims have ties to terrorists”
10:12 PM CDT on Thursday, April 5, 2007

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Dallas police and federal terrorism officials are investigating two women, both dressed in camouflage pants under their traditional Muslim robes and scarves, who were seen conducting what appeared to be surveillance and acting suspiciously at Dallas Love Field.

One of the women, Kimberly “Asma” Al-Homsi, 42, of Arlington, who is on probation for a 2005 Garland road rage incident involving a fake grenade, is said to have long-range assault rifle and explosives training, according to a Dallas police intelligence bulletin issued March 5.

“I’m a trained sniper and proud of it,” Ms. Al-Homsi said in an interview Thursday after first refusing to comment on whether she has any terrorism ties. She then said no.

Police officials said they have no direct evidence the women have ties to terrorism.

“I am not a dangerous individual,” said Ms. Al-Homsi, who said she is an accountant who has dual Syrian-U.S. citizenship.”
