That includes the shooting today at Benjamin Tasker. Although it's on MD 197, there is a Conservative congregation very near and folks walk to Friday prayer. As a consequence they live near the place of worship.
If you fellows missed my posts earlier, note that "Michaels" does business as "Aarons" in the Midwest and Texas.
Notice I said "all but one". The cabdriver had lived here 30 years. His funeral service was conducted at the SDA church he attended. No doubt the shooter, if an AlQaida "sleeper", works as a cab driver and recognized the man pumping gas at the Mobile station and realized he could identify him. One of the professional profilers said that when these mass killings takes place at least one of the victims will have been somebody who was a witness.
This shooter probably takes people from this area out to Baltimore-Washington International (BWI) regularly. Folks in Federicksburg (where the other "Michaels" was located, regularly take cabs from MD up to BWI on route 301!
301 runs through this area.
The shooter lives in the area, or does most of his cab driving in that area of MD.
The white "box truck", was most likely a misidentified 2.5 ton or 3.0 ton USPS truck then in the area taking mail to a delivery unit. Since this vehicle was seen only one time, it should not be heavily weighted in the profile.

Interesting information and insights. The ethnography of these places is not well known as one gets farther away and could be significant, especially in predicting where future attacks might come. There was finally something on the news media today where a government spokesman let the "terror" word slip.
