| 2023-08-19 | |
[Daily Mail, where America gt its news] As predicted, another known wolf.
In response to inquiries from DailyMail.com about whether or not he was on any form of watch list or was known to police, the FBI today revealed that agents received an anonymous tip in 2021 about how many weapons he owned. They however forwarded the matter on to Fargo Police Department, whose officers visited his home three times in 2021. They had received a tip from a concerned member of the public. The cops spoke with Barakat once, during which time he insisted he had 'no ill-intentions' despite his enormous weapons inventory. They then decided not to pursue any kind of action against him. 'During this visit, FPD detectives observed Barakat had several firearms in the apartment; however, none of them were illegal. Barakat was not prohibited from acquiring or possessing guns. Police say they have not found any evidence that he was a religious fanatic, and believe instead that he was motivated purely by hate and fascinated by mass shootings.
