That cheerful message was reposted by Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi from the Boston Muslim Community on his Facebook page last year. FOX News is reporting that Alharbi (harb = sword) is the “person of interest” being questioned. This is still preliminary information and may not pan out in the long run.
A source close to the investigation confirms to FoxNews.com the man whose apartment was searched is considered a person of interest in the case, and is the same person of interest Fox News confirmed earlier authorities are guarding at a local hospital.
The source confirmed to FoxNews.com that the person of interest is Abdul Rahman Ali Alharbi, a 20-year-old Saudi. His Facebook page identifies him as a current or former student at the New England School of English. He is believed to have entered the country on a student visa.
The source stressed that Alharbi is a person of interest, not a suspect, and said he suffered serious injuries in the explosion.
Alharbi’s Facebook page hasn’t been updated in a while. He is a Saudi student and poses in the photo above holding a golden gun on Saudi Day. If he turns out to be one of the perpetrators, then the timing for Obama’s new open door policy to Saudi travelers will have been a particularly bad one.
UPDATE: Unnamed law enforcement officials are saying that the Saudi they have in custody is a witness, not a suspect, but reports are that he was stopped at the scene while acting suspiciously and the same source that calls him a witness, also says that a search was conducted of his apartment. If you’re searching an apartment, then the man in question is or was a suspect.

Sig bling ping...
Now we know what a goat BBQ gun looks like.
TOLD YOU IT WAS THE TEA PARTY!!!!!
I did not think they let people post pictures of themselves with guns on Facebook.
Lovely gun. All Saudi students have guns or was the photo taken in his homeland?
His finger behind the trigger - classic Islamic idiot used to plant bombs — A Saudi wanting to be cool with the other Madrassah gang sets bombs and gets too close to one and gets burned - then captured...typical Moslem...someone please get him some crayons and paper — he’s going to be hanging around for a while....
Quick someone alert Feinstein, a dude holding a golden gun..oh wait..he’s an Arab, therefore nothing to see here, moving on
I keep thinking of the TV show Homeland with this Boston attack.
John Kerry said before the bombing that these foreign students were afraid of Americans and their guns. Someone should send John Kerry this picture.
We have the biggest bunch of morons running this country in history.
At least he has more sense to keep his finger off the trigger than Boxer.
Why wasn’t the guy doing his homework instead of getting into mischief?
How many of these Saudi “students” do we have inside the country these days?
Too many
This is even better...
We have elevated all students and all teachers to some sort of whimsical stature of impunity - and frankly, these two groups are among the most ignorant we have....(yes, I’m generalizing....)
Yes, which helped James find him. His gun required custom bullets only a few were capable of making. Here it is:
