US Capitol bomb scare
From correspondents in WashingtonApril 12, 2005
A MAN demanding to talk to President Bush who had suitcases potentially containing explosives has been tackled outside the US Capitol and arrested.After taking x-rays of the two suitcases, authorities blew up one of the bags that contained suspicious wires and hand-searched the other.
Capitol Police Chief Terrance Gainer said the bags contained no explosives or other dangerous materials and that the wires turned out to be part of a CD player.
Gainer said the man would be charged with disobeying a police officer. He said the man was undergoing further investigation and police were not releasing his name. The man had no identification on him but was 33 and from China, Gainer added.
"He recently entered the country and we're still working with the Secret Service to determine any new information about him," Gainer told reporters.
The man drew the attention of a Capitol police officer in the early afternoon. When the man would not respond to police, they cleared the surrounding area and told people to stay away from the windows and asked staff to clear offices closest to the area.
Gainer said the man wanted to talk to Bush
He said he would not speak to anybody but the President," the chief said.
For about an hour after he drew the attention of police, the man stood facing the Capitol with a suitcase on either side of him. Several helmeted police officers tackled him and dragged him away by his arms before the hazardous materials response team moved in. He put up no resistance.
THIS ONE IS ON HIS WAY TO GUANTANAMO FOR YEARS WITH NO LAWYERS TO
DEFEND HIM
