Ohio Airport Jihad: “Armed with knives” Hashim Hanif Ibn Abdul-Rasheed attacks police at airport

A Muslim armed with knives tried to buy a ticket at the Ohio airport and when questioned attacked the police. He was shot dead.

Perhaps he was inspired by the Paris cop killing this morning,

A 41-year-old Ohio man armed with several knives tried to buy a plane ticket with a fake ID before being gunned down by police after lunging at an officer with a blade outside the Columbus airport, police said.

Hashim Hanif Ibn Abdul-Rasheed had parked illegally outside the ticketing terminal and was acting bizarrely as he tried to buy a ticket to an undisclosed location Wednesday afternoon. He showed off a woman’s ID to try and make the buy at one point before he was rebuffed, cops said.

Airport police called a tow truck to remove the illegally parked vehicle from the departures lane just before 1 p.m. Wednesday when Abdul-Rasheed returned.

“The man initially spoke with the officer then suddenly produced a knife and lunged at the officer, attempting to stab him,” the Port Columbus International Airport said in a statement. “The officer fired at the suspect, who momentarily dropped to the ground and then got back up and continued advancing towards the officer. A backup officer responded at which point the suspect quickly moved towards him with the knife forcing the officer to retreat backwards towards the terminal entrance where a third officer was positioned. The third officer shot multiple times, striking the suspect, ending the attack.”

Probably just a preemptive response to the Islamophobia backlash from the Paris jihadish attack yesterday </Sarc>

Nothing to see here. Move along. These are not the jihadists you are looking for.

[Uncle Miltie]

This is impossible.

Good guys with guns don’t stop bad guys with guns.

I’ve been told repeatedly.

[PROCON]

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

What? No riding on bicycles and and blowing whistles?

[Uncle Miltie]

Oh yeah, it was a knife. So it worked!

[mbarker12474]

Why, Hashim Hanif Ibn Abdul-Rasheed is no more Muslim than I am.

[Vaquero]

Workplace violence. Move along

[Responsibility2nd]

I see a differeence here. Between France and The US.

In the USA, you bring a knife, the cops bring guns.

In France, they bring bombs and weapons, the cops bring bicycles.

Were his hands up as he was saying “don’t shoot?” If so, call All Sharpton and let’s take to the streets to protest this latest example of police brutality. If they weren’t up, then let’s pretend they were and take to the streets anyway.

[IamConservative]

I like a story with a just ending.

[albie]

Workplace violence? Did he get fired from the airport Sbarros? They have a new pork pizza that may have rattled him. Perhaps he was upset with the lack of foot baths in the men’s room? Maybe the spark is gone with his goat? Lots of things can make a man irritable.

[SandRat]

Proving again, don’t take a knife to a gun fight.

[livius]

As soon as I didn't see his name yesterday when this was reported, I knew he was a Muslim jihadi wannabe.

[Perseverando]

According to Al Sharpton, throughout the confrontation Abdul-Rasheed was shouting "Hands Up! Don't shoot!! </Sarc>

[Diana in Wisconsin]

I love a Happy Ending! :)

You beat me to it by 3 minutes. Great minds think alike! LOL

[TurboZamboni]

Maybe John Fn Kerry can go award them a medal for Courageous Restraint.

[struggle]

He finally became holey.

[dennisw]

OK so was this guy crazy crazy or Muslim crazy? Is there a difference? Is crazy the "normal" state for most Muslims?

Then again we have _Sudden Jihad Syndrome_ which afflicted this loony

Nice shootin', cops. Good teamwork too, it sounds like.
