The Carteret County Sheriffs Office is investigating reports of suspicious activity among three individuals at two schools on Wednesday.
According to a press release from the sheriffs office, just after noon, three individuals came into the White Oak Elementary and Bogue Sound Elementary schools and were asking questions as to whether the schools were designated as crisis evacuation centers. After being requested to present identification, the individuals presented IDs that appeared to be military-style ID cards but the validity of the cards is unknown.
Law enforcement said they contacted surrounding military installations and have received no word of military personnel are conducting any exercises or security assessments in Carteret County.
The first suspect is a white male, 6-foot-0 with a thin build, dark hair and wearing a long sleeve green-stripped polo shirt and blue jeans. The second suspect is described as a light skinned non-Caucasian male, 5-foot-8 with a thin build, dark hair and wearing a plaid shirt and blue jeans. The third suspect is identified as a light skinned non-Caucasian male standing 5-foot-8 with a medium build, dark hair and wearing an orange plaid shirt and khaki pants.
All three subjects were wearing Merrell type hiking boots and were in their mid 20s in age, according to the press release. The subjects were last seen operating a newer model small 4-door hatchback crossover vehicle, possibly a Toyota Rav-4 or Dodge Journey, according to officials. The vehicle was described as silver in color and bearing out-of-state tags, possibly the Washington, D.C. area. The vehicle was last seen around 1 p.m. on Hwy. 24. It was unclear which direction they were traveling.
All county schools and law enforcement agencies with schools in their jurisdictions were notified of todays activities. The Sheriffs Office is asking for the publics help in identifying and locating the subjects for questioning in order to determine their identities and purpose for visiting the schools. If anyone has any information on these individuals please contact the Carteret County Sheriffs Office or the Carteret County Communications Center at (252) 726-1911.
Just the media setting their narrative knowing this was a muslim attack.
A cover up for a dry run perhaps?
If I were in charge, there would have been no notice. The only way to check security is to give no warning, just like any terrorist/criminal.
IMHO, this should be standard procedure by LE. In addition to beefed up security at all schools, etc.
I live in the Philippines, where there are constant battles with Muslims in the Western regions of Mindanao. I live in Davao City, which is on the same Island, but is far away from them. Davao City is considered one of the SAFEST cities in the world.
Just before reading this thread, I was talking with my Filipina wife about concern for my daughter's family. She lives near Holly Ridge, which is a hop-skip-and jump from Jacksonville, the home of Camp LeJeune's US Marines. To me, that would be a significant target area as well.
I sent my daughter an email telling her to start shopping in Wilmington, which is another 10 miles away in the other direction... Just saying'!
YMMV!!!
So, the military is going around now checking security at elementary schools?
I agree a surprise visit might be best, but shouldn’t they wear uniforms and tell the principal who they are once they arrive??
You are correct, sir.
2. Even if it is a constitutionally legit function, why are they in civilian clothes instead of military uniform?
3. Why do all three young men appear to be "swarthy" in appearance?
And a mall.
And a HS football game.
Day care...
Movie theater...
Church...
I expect them to pop up all over the place.
This one’s a quadruple BS - today of all days, the military, Ft. Bragg, a team (3) not just 1, dressed down civvies, the military @ an elementary school?, etc.
They also look like jihadis the military brings here to train who sometimes venture out into the public for surveillance.
It doesn’t get any more suspicious than this and it surely isn’t the end of their adventure either.
***Cuz all legitimate military exercises in elementary schools involve Middle Eastern looking young men with untucked shirts, etc.***
Yeah I call bs. It also says they were not authorized to go to the schools and it was just a mix up of some sort. All Middle Eastern looking?
Yeah we’ve never had any Muslims in our military go off the rails and kill people have we?
Holy crap
Yes because right on the heels of a mass shooting by Muslims if this was a true story people wouldn’t send their children to school would they? Actually that kind of terror is what TERRORISTS really want right? Telling people the truth might start a panic. Naaaaaah. Muzzle looking weirdos asking strange questions at school aren’t a threat.
I used to work in an office building with a parking garage.
Next to more office buildings with parking garages.
I saw a muslim appearing individual taking pictures of the buildings.
I told building management.
They said, “Maybe they’re just admiring the archtitecture.”
Nobody is going to worry until the headchopper’s ball is going on in half a dozen cities simultaneously.
Even then they’ll just stick their heads in the sand and make excuses for them.
We’re surrounded by idiots. I caught wind earlier about this shooting but too busy working to find out any details until now. So, Isis, or their sympathizers are starting to strike. Anyone could have seen this coming. No surprise here. What does surprise me a but is that it appears that one Barrack Hussein Obama has spoken, and his focus is on, “gun control!”
Just no words. I can’t even.
Let’s ignore the big polka dotted elephant sitting in middle of the room why don’t we dear leader.
CA all the way... Whoooa. Normal CA stuff.....well, the new normal.
This ping list is for the "other" articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
They’re trying to pin it on white *domestic* terrorists.
They don’t want to offend any special interest victim group and hurt their widdle feewings.
I don’t believe it.
If they were legitimate, they’d be dressed way more professionally and the school superintendent should have been contacted by the sheriff’s dept instead of them walking into the school and talking to the office.
Search “The Perfect Day” in reference to coordinated attacks by mooselimbs. It’s coming.....
Are there students at the school whose parents are stationed at or work at Ft. Bragg? Perhaps the the highest officers at the fort are legitimately concerned about the safety of the children at the school?
