BREAKING NEWS -- A Pakistani man believed to be the driver of an SUV used as a car bomb in a failed terror attack on Times Square was taken into custody late Monday by FBI agents and local police detectives while trying to leave the country, U.S. officials said.
The suspect, Faisal Shahzad, was identified by customs agents at John F. Kennedy International Airport at about 11:45 p.m. Monday and was stopped before departing on an Emirates airlines flight to Dubai, according to U.S. Attorney Eric Holder and other officials. Shahzad is a naturalized U.S. citizen and had recently returned from a five-month trip to Pakistan, where he had a wife, according to officials who spoke to The Associated Press early Tuesday on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the investigation.
Shahzad was being held in New York and couldn't be contacted. He has a Shelton, Conn., address; a phone number listed there wasn't in service. Investigators were searching his home.
Law enforcement officials say Shahzad bought the SUV, a 1993 Nissan Pathfinder, from a Connecticut man about three weeks ago and paid cash. The officials spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the case.

It took about 3 hours for the MSM to start saying it was a white male in his 40’s.......
But... but... the Pakistanis are our ALLIES in the war on terror! We gave the billions of dollars in weapons last year! :’-(
“Has Obama apologized or started bowing yet?”
Give him time—he will.
Has Napolitano used the “T” word yet?
Wake up Mayor Bloomberg. Someone let him know right away ...
"You're a frigging idiot!"
My Message to the Mayor I sent earlier:
Dear Mayor Blooming-IDIOT?
If you had any sense of decency, which from an obvious, Nanny-State, Leftist, would be asking a lot, you would issue an apology to the MILLIONS of us who oppose your DEAR LEADER's Health Care Reform.
No doubt Barack O'Bummer gave you those talking points to parrot, but only a clueless Loon, would dare suggest that we as a group, would resort to terrorist tactics.
I won't hold my breath for you to do the right thing, but then again, don't hold your breath waiting for me to visit your fair city anytime soon--or until you are no longer its Mayor.
When the commies at the state dept. see “red flags” the immediately stand at attention. Otherwise they spend their time trying to dismantle America as quickly as they can.
and Amish, Tea Party, Right Wing, and at band camp we chanted about Progressives...
“The officials spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the case.”
If it involves Muslims it’s sensitive?
Yeah, they aren't known for their creative naming skills. (:
