The FBI is investigating a machete attack Thursday night that turned a popular, Israeli-owned restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, into a bloodbath, but local police say there is no indication so far of a terror motive.
Of the four patrons wounded in the attack at the Nazareth Restaurant and Deli, one was in critical condition before being upgraded to “stable.†The attacker was identified as Mohammad Barry, a law enforcement source told Fox News.
"There's nothing to lead us to believe this is anything more than a random attack," Columbus police spokesman Sgt. Rich Weiner told the The Columbus Dispatch.
Weiner added that the FBI is also investigating the attack but declined say why.
A source told Fox News the FBI is scouring Barry's background, which includes interviewing associates and digging into his travel history. Fox is also told that investigators are looking into Barry's digital and online footprint for terrorist propaganda or evidence of communication extremists.

Columbus police spokesman Sgt. Rich Weiner.......
Is he kin to Carlos Danger????
One pictures a cartoon with stacks of clues pilled high all over the place, and the local spokesman for the authorities stating, “We’ve been all over the place and haven’t found a clue yet. I’m sure in time we’ll come up with something. It’s just to early to tell.”
Then, days later..., “Workplace violence.”
This sort of PC crap, this denial of reality, is why Trump is so popular.
Right. Machete should be one clue. No, mu-ham-med wasn’t cutting down bushes for a living. He was going to slash someone. PC people are really pathetic. Most likely lived in mom’s basement too long!
“If you do that, you will hurt someone’s feelings.”
Politically speaking, Trump doesn’t give a sh*t about hurt feelings.
Who stole these police officials’ brains? Give ‘em back!
Yet another example of why concealed carry is so important for EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE.

I’m so sorry.
One of our own.
Sad.

Oh, then the Mohammed guy couldn't possibly have a religious motivation for the attack. After all, Muslims love Christians... < sarc off >
Hmm...yes, Israeli-owned restaurant, perp named Mohammed, shouting “Allahu Ackbar!”... there’s something in common here, but I just can’t quite put my finger on it...
Sidearm or no sidearm deadly and mean.
yep...I also like open carry as well.....
“The attacker was identified as Mohammad Barry”
Something sounds coincidental, but I can’t quite put my finger on it ....
The attacker was identified as Mohammad...
What clarification is required?
Somalis, if he is one (as CBS says), have been nothing but trouble in this country. LOTS of issues with them in Minnesota for example.
Could you please point me to a link that says that? Thanks.
AND the FBI is investigating
But of course, motives are totally UNCLEAR.....
Somalian Muslim = benefit of doubt, American Christian = NO benefit of doubt.
America the Obamanation.
Never mind, I found one.

I used to live right by there, for 25 years. I thought my old neighbor was one of the owners. Still not sure if she’s related to this guy that’s mentioned. She was originally from Bethlehem, and was Christian.
I believe that I read the owners were Arab Christians from Israel.
