FLINT (WJRT) - (06/21/17) - One person is in custody and being questioned after an airport police officer was stabbed at Flint's Bishop Airport at around 9:30 a.m. Wednesday. The FBI is investigating the incident as a possible act of terrorism.

The man in police custody has been identified as 50-year-old Amor Ftouhi, a Canadian citizen. He legally entered the country on June 16 in New York. He arrived at Bishop Wednesday morning. Special Agent in Charge David Gellius says Ftouhi yelled “Allah Akbar” before stabbing Lieutenant Jeff Neville.
Gellius says Ftouhi said something to the effect of, “You have killed people in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and we’re all going to die.”

There were dozens of people in the airport at the time of the incident. Traffic has now resumed at the airport.

FBI: No 'wider plot' suspected in Michigan airport stabbing

FLINT, Mich. (AP) — A Canadian man from Tunisia shouted in Arabic before stabbing a police officer in the neck at a Michigan airport, and made reference to people being killed overseas during the attack that's now being investigated as an act of terrorism, federal and court officials said.
Amor Ftouhi, 49, of Montreal, was immediately taken into custody. A criminal complaint charging him with committing violence at an airport says Ftouhi asked an officer who subdued him why the officer didn't kill him.
The attack Wednesday at Bishop International Airport in Flint, Michigan, is being investigated as an act of terrorism, but authorities have no indication at this time that the suspect was involved in a "wider plot," said FBI Special Agent in Charge David Gelios.
"At this time we view him as a lone-wolf attacker," Gelios said. "We have no information to suggest any training."
The criminal complaint says Ftouhi stabbed airport police Lt. Jeff Neville with a large knife after yelling "Allahu akbar," the Arabic phrase for "God is great." According to the FBI, Ftouhi said something similar to "you have killed people in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and we are all going to die."

Major headlines on this incident (3-4 headlines including top headline) and then sudden complete disappearance on Drudge yesterday and then re-appearance of this news with very diffferent tone this morning on Drudge seems quite strange.
Did the later reporting of "Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan" citation caused top headlines to be pulled?

Did the later reporting of "Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan" citation caused top headlines to be pulled? Disappointment in the fact that it was a Canadian, more likely.
