Chicago Sun Times – by Jordon Owen
A man who had an ISIS flag waving from his vehicle is facing several charges after he threatened police with a bomb Wednesday morning when he was pulled over on the Southwest Side.
Emad Karakrah, 49, was charged with felony counts of disorderly conduct and aggravated fleeing; and a misdemeanor count of driving on a never-issued license, according to Chicago Police. He was also issued three traffic citations.
Someone called police after seeing a “suspicious person” driving a silver Pontiac southbound in the 7700 block of South Kedzie at 9:18 a.m. with an ISIS flag waving out the window, according to a police report.
Officers attempted to pull over the vehicle, but the driver took off, according to the report. The officers called for assistance, and another officer pulled the vehicle over after it went through several red lights.
The man told police during his arrest that there was a bomb in the car and he would detonate it if they searched the vehicle, according to the report.
A bomb squad, the FBI and Homeland Security responded to the scene and searched the vehicle, but no bomb was found, authorities said.
Judge Laura Sullivan ordered Karakrah held on a $55,000 bond Thursday. He is next scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 3.
I wonder how much the Feds paid him to do this in order to stir up ISIS propaganda in the U.S.? How come the police didn’t tase or shoot the guy to death, especially after saying he had a bomb in the car. After all, it’s guilty until proven innocent and shoot first, ask questions later.
Amazing. They won’t do anything when the guy makes bomb threats and waves an ISIS flag, but if you drive that car without your seat belt on or sit too long on that sidewalk or at a park while doing nothing, it’s execution time, along with two SWAT squads on your ass, shooting you up again afterwards just to make sure they didn’t miss you the first time. I see how it is.
Unfrigginbelievable……
“A bomb squad, the FBI and Homeland Security responded to the scene and searched the vehicle, but no bomb was found, authorities said.”
So he lied?
