If they know his age, then they must know a lot more. Maybe the next of kin haven't been notified...
Remember, as much as it might seem to be an act of * Arab sponsored terrorism*, we simply don't know -- the "happy face" mailbox bomber was white.
If it is an act of Arab sponsored terrorism - I bet the FBI/CIA are monitoring cell phone activity as we speak...
If this is terrorist-related, they'll hem and haw on identity till the celebrations and fireworks are over tonight. Too many businesses, vendors and merchants will take a tremendous bath throughout the country if no one shows at the hundreds of thousands of events across the country. Panic and trampling could take place at fireworks shows if a wild rumor starts. Just my take.
By the way, if they know his age, they know who he is.
