WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Police investigating the Washington area sniper case were interested in talking to two people identified as John Allen Williams and John Malvo, CNN and Fox News reported on Wednesday.
Neither man was considered a suspect, the reports said. The men were connected to a 1990 Chevy Caprice bearing New Jersey license plate number NDA 21Z, according to both networks.
Williams, who is also known as Mohammad Williams, was reported to have been stationed at Fort Lewis, an Army base near Tacoma, in Washington state. Federal and local authorities conducted a search of a backyard at a home in Tacoma on Wednesday.
cop tires...cop shocks...cop engine...and a half a tank of gas..let's go
I don't know if CNN wrote that anywhere, but Fox actually had "burgandy" written on its screen. Now I see they've changed the spelling of Mohammed, they had Muhammad or some off-kilter spelling.
But the greatest comment from Fox tonight had to be Rita Cosby's discussion of the Alabama terrorist camp, which she said was located on the Alabama / Maryland border.
Fox has great commentary, but their ability to cover breaking news is horrible.
