FBI Alerted Garland PD of Jihadists Before Attack
2015-05-08
[Breitbart] While the White House still won't call it a terrorist attack, word out of the FBI on Thursday that the Bureau had been in communication with Garland Police hours before the attack. They had provided a picture of Elton Simpson, and his license plate information, and including him with a group of people thought to have "high interest" in the Mohammad Art Exhibit and Contest event over the weekend.

KDFW-Fox 4 TV Senior Reporter Shaun Rabb on with Greta Van Sustern on Fox News Channel in the 7pm hour on Thursday night, saying that the FBI wasn't sure exactly where Simpson was, in his hometown of Phoenix, in Dallas, or somewhere in-between, and that there was 'no specific threat", but that he was added to the list of people with "high interest" in the event at the Caldwell Center in Garland

Subject: Inside Info on the Garland, Texas shooting

Received this from a friend who is a friend of the Police Chief of a Texas City. Thought it was interesting.


I have access to some of the info on the Garland shooting you probably don’t have. Interestingly enough that was a 60 year old 30 year veteran cop that went to war with these guys. He confronted them at 20 yards with a Glock 21 .45 cal and instead of retreating approached them steadily firing. He took down 1st guy within first 4-5 rounds and went to working on other as he had closed to within 8-10 yards. He was textbook, reloaded with one round still in chamber and finished off 2nd guy with 2-3 more rounds. Word is 2nd guy threw his gun down after a malfunction but cop decided it wasn’t quite even just yet and hit him with another couple of rounds. I hope that doesn’t get controversial but that old saying “it isn’t over until it’s over” should certainly apply to this situation. Moral of story: don’t screw with old men who know how to shoot....

#1  Yeah, even with the FBI trying to take credit, it still came down to a traffic cop on point duty.
