Car pulled over in FLA after women overhear's men talking in bar...
Story on CNN
From a local station: Quote:
MAIMI -- An advisory has been sent out to police departments across the state. It's a warning about three men who may be putting together a dangerous plan involving Miami.
A woman at a Georgia restaurant says she overheard three men talking about coming to Miami and she didn't like what she heard. So tonight police are on the lookout for those men.
One day after America remembers September 11th, an alert is issued to police departments across the state about three men.
A woman overheard them talking Thursday morning at a Shoney's restaurant in Calhoun, Georgia. The woman claims the men said, "They (Americans) mourned on 9/11 and they are going to mourn again on 9/13." The men also discussed "running 5 hours behind schedule." One of the men reportedly said, "We do not have enough to bring it down." The men then left the restaurant, and headed south on I-75.
Miami-Dade County officials say they are not taking any chances.
Steve Shiver, Miami-Dade County Manager says, "At this point in time we have no reason... ...to be aware of our surroundings."
We have comprised some information about these men and police are asking for your help.
The description of the first car:
A Nissan Maxima: cream color with gold trim and a Carmax tag on the front of the vehicle.
Now the second car:
A new Honda, black with Illinois plates.
Now for the suspects' descriptions;
First: A man of possible Middle Eastern descent, 5'10'', 200 pounds, 20-30 years old, black hair, brown eyes, set wide apart, thick beard that extends past his collar.
Second man: again, possible Mideastern descent, 5'7'', 130 pounds, black hair that comes down to his collar.
The third and final man, also of possible Mideastern descent, 5'7'' 130 pounds, shiny black hair.
Now we want to stress tonight, as we speak, the nation is still at an orange alert. (the second highest) This may be nothing, but they just want to talk to these men to make sure.
If you have any information you are urged to call Miami-dade CrimeStoppers at (305) 471-TIPS or in Broward call (954) 493-TIPS.
Stay tuned to WSVN Channel 7 for the latest on this developing story. |

hmmmm,
sounds kinda fishy that they would be speaking out loud like that. Unless they were trying to get a reaction.
The car or the parkinglot would be alot more secure. I hope i am right in thinkin this is bogus. I mean you have to be stupid to blow yourself up to make a point. But that stupid??????????

Watching Fox news, they had a press conference with county officials and also had the lady that reported the incident in an interview, her name is Eunice Stone.
Eunice says at 10:30 yesterday morning, she and her son overheard three middle eastern men talking at a Shoney's. They were joking about 9-11 and giving the thumb's up sign. One of them said "if they are sad about 9-11, wait till they see 9-13"... Another man said "do you think we have enough to bring it down" and another said "I have contacts, if we don't have enough, we can get enough to bring it down.."
Eunice then got their license plate numbers and called the Georgia highway patrol. According to he news conference, officials say two bomb sniffing dogs indicated positive on both vehicles, they did find bomb trigger devices but no explosives. They had to import some special equipment and are about to canvass the cars. The suspects are being held pending investigation. One of the cars ran the toll booth without paying, which is one reason they were stopped... but they were looking for the vehicles anyway based on Eunice's information.

Oddly, when white car ran through tollbooth and was stopped by police, the black car pulled up voluntarily. The black car has now been moved. Only time will tell. Could even be a diversion.

The no fly zone is to keep news helicopters out of the area.
