SAN DIEGO - A man who fatally shot himself in his University City condominium during a standoff with San Diego police was identified Saturday as a 29-year-old student.
An autopsy is scheduled tomorrow on the body of Khaled Yasufi, medical examiner Investigator Sal Rodriguez said.
Police were sent to the 8700 block of Costa Verde Boulevard after someone reported a strong odor coming from a condo about 1 p.m. Friday, SDPD Sgt. Jim Schorr said.
A man in the condo told officers everything was fine and shut the door, Schorr said. Within a couple of minutes, a gunshot was heard, prompting police to clear the building, Schorr said.
Police eventually sent in a camera-equipped robot, which transmitted images of a body in the unit. When officers made entry after a standoff of about six hours, a chemical lab was found in the bathroom of the condo, police said.
Rodriguez said he did not know where Yasufi went to school.

Call me a bit cynical here but can someone please answer these questions for me?

Where is Khaled Yusufi from?
Is he Muslim, as his name would indicate?
What mosque, if any, did he attend?
Why did he find it necessary to shoot himself when the discovery of his chemical lab was imminent?
What chemicals did he have in his lab?
Where did he attend school?

That's good for a start...

Laura, you should be in charge of that investigation. In fact, many FReepers could do better than what I've seen from LEO lately, ie; The OU "suicide" bomber.

That address is very very close to UCSD; University of California at San Diego. By very close I mean blocks.

I'll have to be sure to watch the 4 pm news today to see if they mention anything else about this. If so, I'll report back.

I would guess that it wasn't the run of the mill meth lab. There would be no reason to kill himself over that. Now, if he's cooking up some kind of explosives or chem/bio stuff and he's caught then yes.. BANG. I don't think the real terrorists want to be caught alive since they will go to Gitmo and/or give up what they know one way or the other. That's probably a no no in the jihad training manual. :)

THANK YOU stillproud2befree.

Those are very good questions.
