Crime / Nigerian In US Arrested For Making Terrorist Threats by k10: 7:34pm On Sep 11, 2013
The Los Angeles International Airport security screener arrested for allegedly making threats appears on a website where there are rambling letters criticizing America and a promise of something more devastating than the 9/11 attacks.

Federal authorities arrested 29-year-old Nna Alpha Onuoha late Tuesday, hours after he quit his Transportation Security Administration job.

Investigators are examining the website. It contains photos of Onouha posing with crosses and several letters filled with religious references.

In an Aug. 25 posting, he said he would release a message Sept. 11 and America "will be reduced to nothing."

Federal officials say Onuoha made two calls to LAX on Tuesday after resigning and told officials to evacuate terminals.

Parts of the airport were cleared and searched. Nothing was found.

THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.

A Los Angeles International Airport security screener was arrested hours after quitting his job for making unspecified threats referencing Wednesday's Sept. 11 anniversary and calling airport officials and telling them to evacuate terminals, the FBI said.

Parts of the nation's third-largest airport were cleared and searched late Tuesday. Nothing was found and there were no major disruptions to flights.

The former screener, Nna Alpha Onuoha, 29, was arrested just before midnight for investigation of making threats.

Onuoha, originally from Nigeria, had worked for the Transportation Security Administration since 2006 but was suspended recently, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said. He showed up at LAX on Tuesday afternoon, resigned from his job and left behind a package at TSA's airport headquarters that was addressed to another agency employee, she said.

A bomb squad found no explosives or harmful contents in the package but discovered an eight-page letter in which Onuoha expressed disdain for the U.S. and referenced the event that led to his suspension, Eimiller said. It was not clear Wednesday why TSA suspended him.

The TSA did not immediately respond to a phone call seeking information on Onuoha. It could not be immediately determined if Onuoha had a lawyer.

Later Tuesday, a man believed to be Onuoha made two phone calls to TSA saying certain airport terminals should be evacuated, Eimiller said. During one call, the man told an employee he would "be watching" to see if authorities evacuated the terminals as instructed.

A search of Onuoha's apartment in Inglewood, near LAX, found no dangerous materials but did turn up a note containing unspecified threats that cited the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, authorities said. Additional details from the letter were not immediately provided.

Onuoha was arrested in Riverside about 65 miles away. The church parking lot where his minivan was parked was cleared and a bomb squad robot conducted a search in and around the vehicle. Nothing dangerous was found.

Crime / Re: Why Don't We Investigate Deaths In Nigeria? by k10: 1:20pm On Aug 08, 2013
Some do get investigated. It depends largely on the family of the deceased -- how wealthy or how influential they are. Remember the case of the husband who stabbed his banker wife to death or the death of facebook cynthia etc

who wants to go to the police, who will accuse you of complicity or libel ( as you said) but if you are wealthy or influential then the police will believe you.

Fashion / Beware The Hair-raising Thieves Who Are Targeting Ladies' Locks by k10: 9:29am On Aug 08, 2013
Heads up all you women with long flowing manes. If you're planning a trip to Venezuela anytime soon, you might want to tuck your hair up under a baseball cap. Apparently a group of scissor-wielding thieves, known as piranhas, are holding up women at gunpoint, forcing them to tie their tresses into a ponytail and then chopping the hair off. The group, which has a penchant for straight hair, then sells the strands to beauty salons to be made into extensions. We already had our doubts about visiting Venezuela, given that it was recently ranked one of the unfriendliest nations in the world (and don’t forget the toilet paper shortage), but stealing our hair right off of our heads? No thank you. [Source]
