“Police: Planned ‘Military Style Assault’ at High School Foiled”

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) —

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “State police detectives Michael Lamonaco and Kenneth Koenig, working with officials from the other agencies, then began a more extensive investigation and spoke with nine of the student’s acquaintances, described by Della Fave as five juveniles and four adult males, all of whom live in Belvidere or nearby White Township. Della Fave would not say whether any of them were also students.

“Investigators learned that the military-style plot was being developed, and that (those involved) had begun doing surveillance work at the school and were working to identify possible escape routes,’’ Della Fave said.

Authorities notified the student’s father, who voluntarily surrendered some guns in his house to authorities. Della Fave said all the weapons were legally registered and that the father has been assisting investigators.

The student, whose name was not disclosed, has been hospitalized for a mental health evaluation, Della Fave said. He has not yet been charged.

James M. Shipps, 22, of Belvidere, was charged with creating a false public alarm, making terroristic threats and hindering apprehension, Della Fave said. He was being held in the county jail on $50,000 bail. It was not immediately clear if he had retained a lawyer.”

Thanks to RDTF for pointing to this update:

CNN.com: "TIMES SQUARE BOMBING CAUGHT ON TAPE" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: ("The blast is similar to two other incidents in New York, one in October and one in May 2005. Both times an explosive device was detonated around 3 a.m. In the October incident, a bomb was detonated near the Mexican consulate, shattering windows. At that time the authorities said the explosive device was similar to the ones used in a May 2005 blast at the British consulate. In both cases, authorities were looking for a person spotted riding a bicycle in the area.") (March 6, 2008)
