"Terror task force looks into Orange County armed robbery"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "LAGUNA NIGUEL, Calif. (AP) -- A terrorism task force is looking into the armed robbery of an electronics store as a precautionary measure, a sheriff's department official said Thursday. 

Members of the local Joint Terrorism Task Force responded to a Radio Shack in Laguna Niguel where a man in a suit and tie Wednesday used a sawed-off shotgun to steal walkie-talkies, a television and cash, said Jim Amormino, a spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff's Department. 

The suspect was described as being of Middle Eastern descent by the manager, who is from the Middle East, and asked about a global positioning system before taking the shotgun from a duffel bag and robbing the store, said Amormino."

By Amy Raisin
Staff Writer


ARTICLE SNIPPET: "At least one person was arrested and two others detained Wednesday after sheriff's deputies raided homes in Canyon Country and Agua Dulce that had been under surveillance because of mysterious explosions.

Authorities had gone to both locations with armored vehicles and a bomb squad truck, and the second raid at the Canyon County home was still under way at press time."
