Jefferson Parish officials held a 2 p.m. press conference to provide the latest after Friday night's incident at New Orleans' Armstrong International airport. Here are some highlights from the press conference:
-- Bomb squad went into aggressor White's car at the airport Friday night and found some smoke bombs and three tanks in trunk; intended purpose unknown. Acetylene, freon and oxygen tanks found.
-- Bag that White had in security checkpoint area was found to have six half-pint mason jars with cloth wicks into gasoline; known as Molotov cocktails; BBQ lighter found in bag too along with plastic letter opener, crushed powder, green fuses which appeared to be crushed smoke bombs.
-- White has a mental illness. His family has been cooperative with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office
Now Witnesses are going jihadi?
The description of the incident makes it pretty clear he was off his nut.
A report said he they were having trouble treating him at the hospital because of his JW religious beliefs
Oh, please. The cop in NYC was just drunk; he and his buddies had been out drinking all evening, and just before they left the last bar, they topped it off with a couple of rounds of Jack Daniels.
Get a grip, because this makes people here look like hysterical idiots.
The “mental illness” is liberalism.
Amen to that. You have to maintain situational awareness but we've never had a bad time in Nawlins!
“He has a mental illness.”
“Islamus jihadus?”
Either that or plain old liberalism.
And he had a license to drive a taxi ?
Terrible accident.
I suppose we'll learn more as time goes on.
Are we gonna find out “White” was his old last name, but now it’s something more Islamic sounding?
Lot of overlap in those mental illnesses.
Stranger things have happened.
We’re in NO right now with friends. We flew in yesterday just before all of this happened.
No. Sorry to disappoint. Jihadists don’t attack with bug spray.
Beginning to think 40+% of country is lunatic
“aggressor”?
He seems to have some interesting skills for a mentally ill person.
