A senior U.S. official tells FOX News that more targets were found on computer of a man charged in the fatal shooting Monday at a military recruiting center in Arkansas — suggesting that the shooter may have been part of a larger plot to attack military targets and may not have been acting alone.
It wasn't immediately clear, however, how extensive that plot was or what evidence authorities have that suggests that more suspects were involved. The U.S. official's information contradicted a local police official's denial earlier Tuesday that the shooting was part of a larger conspiracy.
Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, 23, pleaded not guilty to capital murder Tuesday and was ordered held without bond.
One soldier died and another was wounded in what police say was a targeted attack on U.S. forces by a convert to Islam accused of having "political and religious motives."
Muhammad, who previously was known as Carlos Bledsoe, already had been under investigation by the FBI at the time of the shootings.
Muhammad was charged in Monday's death of Pvt. William Long, 23, outside the Army-Navy Career Center, which handles recruiting, in Little Rock.
A prosecutor said Muhammad admitted shooting Long and another soldier "because of what they had done to Muslims in the past."
Long and Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula, 18, had recently completed basic training and had never seen combat. Ezeagwula was in stable condition at a hospital.
An FBI joint terrorism task force based in the southern U.S. reportedly had been tracking Muhammad after he traveled to Yemen and was arrested and jailed there for using a Somali passport, an official told The Associated Press. The probe had been in its early stages and based on Muhammad's trip to Yemen, ABC News reported.

Time to get out the waterboards...
He’s in Cairo — apologizing for America fighting against Islamofacism.
The slain victim of Islam is neither here nor there to his commander-in-chief. The great leader of the free world is too wrapped up in immortalizing a killer of innocent babes and issuing proclamations celebratinig sexual perversion.
It is horrifying to realize how far we have slidden down that slippery slope.
“Still no statement from the slain soldier’s commander-in-chief.”
Well, what were you/we expecting?
Thank you, kristinn....
For all that you do.
Where are all the hand-wringing muslims denouncing this murder?
*crickets*
They ought to arm all the soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines working at "detached" locations, not part of major post or station. Recruiters, ROTC staff, etc. Almost all states have exceptions to their open and concealed carry laws for US military or National Guard, when in the performance of their duties so there would be no legal issues. The services would fight it, and so would the Executive Office of the pResident. So it probably won't be done, but it should be.
That is exactly what I was thinking. Anyone in a military uniform is a target to these a$$-clowns. Lock and load.
I wonder how many Ok City Cover-ups we will have under Obama into the undeniable happens?
And OF COURSE our concerned C-I-C immediately deployed US Marshalls to recruiting stations for their protection, right?
Right?
Riiiiiight.
Either way, alone or not, this was not just Sudden Jihad Syndrome. It was planned, probably by a group, and instigated by an even larger group.
Thus ends the record of no successful terrorist attacks, other than SJS types, on US soil. Just a little over 4 months after the takeover by the Messiah.
The great leader of the free world is too busy creating Saturday Night Jive in NYC with his wife.
One more attack, one more soldier lying dead in American streetswith 0bama on his Apologize To Islam tour and he's done, and not even the MSM will be able to save him. IMHO.
A mope from Tennessee finds his way to Yemen carrying a Somali passport. A felon who is virtually unemployable has access to an SUV and THREE weapons, one an automatic rifle. OF COURSE this bozo is not acting alone. He almost certainly had never HEARD of Yemen until some jihadi took him under the Islamic wing. Crack and marijuana, maybe even a pistol or revolver, a thug like this would know how to obtain. A Somali passport and a passage to Yemen, not in a hundred years.
Going to be a lot worse the day one of these muslem crazies enter an National Guard armory right during morning formation.
even if he comes right out and says he is a member of a terror group the media will say the opposite
Apparently the slain soldier had not performed enough late term abortions to merit any recognition.
Have Federal Marshals been sent to protect the targets?
