21 minutes ago
Six of the 11 Egyptian exchange students who failed to show up for their college program are now in custody after three additional students were arrested Thursday, the FBI said.
El Sayed Ahmed Elsayed Ibrahim, 20, and Alaa Abd El Fattah Ali El Bahnasawi, 20, were arrested at a residence in Dundalk, Md., outside Baltimore, by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
Chicago police detained Ahmed Mohamed Mohamed Abou El Ela, 22, at OHare International Airport as he was attempting to book a flight to Montana, the FBI said. Immigration agents later took El Ela into custody.
All are being held on administrative immigration violations because they did not report on time to their monthlong program at Montana State University in Bozeman, Mont.

MARIETTA, Ohio - Two men were charged Wednesday with money laundering in support of terrorism after authorities said they found airplane passenger lists and information on airport security checkpoints in their car.
Deputies stopped Osama Sabhi Abulhassan, 20, and Ali Houssaiky, 20, both of Dearborn, Mich., on a traffic violation Tuesday. They found the flight documents along with $11,000 cash and 12 phones in the car, said Washington County Sheriff Larry Mincks.
The ones that got caught...are most likely giving up their buddies.
Dundalk, honey.
Did you hear that UK intel kept the bombing plan from the CIA for fear of leakage?
Good!!! Im glad, Our Country is a Security Risk. Too many Clinton Spys in the CIA. they are not to be trusted...
We need to purge the CIA of Leftist Scumbags. they can start with valerie whats her face.
That's "Dundalk, hon!"
If true, I would say they exercised wisdom!
Aw c'mon hon!
"Did you hear that UK intel kept the bombing plan from the CIA for fear of leakage?"
Please tell me that was a joke.
Where did you see this?
Good (and interesting) piecing together of compelling information. Gives us even more to think about.
Two in NJ, Two in Maryland. That covers NYC and DC.
How did one get to Chicago and the other to Minnesota?
Well, that effectively elimates "tourism" as an alibi.
Just havin' a little fun. I actually like Ballmer, Merlin.
I find it interesting that they spread all over the country. If they were just a bunch of kids out to see the sights, why didn't they stick together? Doesn't sound like a bunch of meatheads to me.
Absolutely no reason to wonder why these guys split up into pairs and went everywhere but Montana. None at all.
Let's see, we've gotten them in Maryland, New Jersey, and Maryland so far?

Charm City!
I spent many an evening at Memorial Stadium watching them Birds, or the Oh-rioles.....
We talked about the pea and shell game yesterday.
None of them? They've become 'lost', dispersed all over in pairs and singularly, some reports say with cash and prepaid cell phones, yet, nothing to see here? Yeah, okay, nothing to see here... Riiiight.
