Recruiting Center Gunman Targeted U.S. Military
LITTLE ROCK, Ark — A man with “political and religious motives” killed a soldier just out of basic training and wounded another Monday in a targeted attack on a military recruiting center in Arkansas, police said. The shootings were not believed to be part of a broader scheme.
A police report based on an interview with the suspect says Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, 23, told police he observed two soldiers in uniform, drove up to the recruiting center in Little Rock and started shooting.
“He saw them standing there and drove up and shot them,” Lt. Terry Hastings told The Associated Press. “That’s what he said.”
Muhammad had converted to Islam at some point in his life and interviews with police show he “probably had political and religious motives for the attack,” Police Chief Stuart Thomas said.
