A man suspected of gunning down a Queens imam and his friend outside a mosque was taken into custody Sunday night by cops who believe the killer was an experienced shooter, sources said.

An NYPD Regional Fugitive Task Force was doing “brief surveillance” on a suspect in Queens when he rammed an unmarked cop car, sources said.

He was taken into custody for questioning, according to the sources.

Police officials could not confirm whether a suspect was in custody.

A Hispanic, experienced shooter walks up behind them, shoots them in the head, leaves the money and walks away. Obviously a hit, and not Trump’s fault.

This is a little worrying about NYPD pistol training:
““This guy looks like he has shot a gun before. You don’t walk up behind someone, even from 5 feet, and just get two head shots. How many times you see cops fire 16 times and they hit the guy only twice?” a police source said.”

That is quite an endorsement of NYPD marksmanship competence.
Apparently they don’t have too many Jim Cirillos any more.

An article I read that was linked from Drudge mentioned an earlier disagreement at the mosque. I don’t think this was a right wing hit, I suspect it was in house so to speak.

A professional in this line of work can be “from” most any country.

I still haven’t seen the “Swiss” “man’s” name who did the Swiss train fire & stabbings, although he say he died.

Article refers to disputes between Muslims and Hispanics in the neighborhood. In the Democrat hierarchy of victims do Muslims outrank Hispanics?

"Sources said that when the killer fled the scene of the murder in his car, he hit a bicyclist who took down his license plate."
Note to self: When doing hits, don't use personal vehicle.

Agree. Looks more Middle Eastern than Hispanic.

And you likely never will - the Swiss NEVER release the names of perps OR victims - heck, even missing persons are referred to only as Hans K. and the picture is pixelated! They *may* at some point give us his first name - but they said it was typical swiss and that he lived in Lichtenstein / attended College in St. Gallen and that the neighbors say he was a loner. They are not really hiding anything.

One of the victims was carrying several hundred dollars, police sources said, but the gunman showed no interest in the cash.


Hmm, what does this remind me of?
