Authorities in Baltimore, meanwhile, seized a white van and found an assault rifle, sniper manual and ammunition similar to the .223 bullets used in attacks that have killed eight people and wounded two others, WBAL-TV reported.

MSNBC reported that a tarot card was found in the van and a sign on the dashboard read "Gihad in America." A tarot card was also found at one of the shootings.

The van's owner was questioned Monday night by police and released with no charges filed.

Good Lord ... is all this not at least enough to detain this "gentleman"?

Detain him for what?

Good Lord ... is all this not at least enough to detain this "gentleman"?

Exactly what I was thinking. Did they ever think about investigating his friends and associates?

In watching MSNBC news yesterday evening, I heard them say, "Wait..new information coming in. There WAS NO TAROT CARD found in the van." Then some rambling about how information was coming in so fast, etc. Just excuses as to why they reported the news before verifying its validity. Now that information is being spread around like wildfire and it's not even true. Irresponsible journalism.

From MSNBC right now: "But police said initial reports that a tarot card was found in the van were incorrect."
