We have Miguel Almaguer in chattanooga. Good morning. Reporter carson the attack started here and ended miles away and four innocent lives lost and the gunman killed. Investigators have no concrete motive as they pore over every inch of the suspects life. The 24yearold gold blooded killer. When the fbi says he killed four marines and shot two others. Because the investigation is still in its early stages it would be premature to speculate on why the shooter did what he did. Reporter he went to high school and college in chattanooga. On the wrestling team and mixed martial fighter. The all american friend according to friends. He would say his faith is not a part of his life. Reporter many lost touch with abdulazeez.

The recruiting station. The fact that he has traveled internationally to the middle east. That in and of itself doesnt indicate it is absolutely inspired by isis. You have to wonder if he is in the middle east if he is radicalized. We have not seen a direct correlation to a particular event that would have caused that. Him disappearing off the radar for seven months and coming back and some change in personality, i heard from his father in media reports, there was a significant change. That would raise the concern of the fbi. This was a naturalized u. S. Citizen from kuwait. How can the u. S. With no warning signs, an outgoing kid in high school on the wrestling team. What can we do to prevent the lone wolf attacks . The fbi is looking for some indications. Obviously nwe live in a free society. There is a balance of civil liberty and privacy and security. You will not have 100 of both. The fbi cannot monitor everybody who travels internationally. The fbi is looking for some sign. Somebody involved in social media that brought to their attention. Somebody making violent statements or indicating that they will act against the United States. Until that happens, the fbi will not get engaged in the investigation. What they have to do is really rely on the community. Community leaders and family members and coworkers. People who see change in behavior that indicates there is a violent tendency and that brought to Law Enforcement. The fbi and Law Enforcement, were not going to follow everybody. Particularly somebody who may become self radicalized and not engaged with a particular group. Shawn how will the fbi probe the recent trip to the middle east . They will work with Law Enforcement and foreign partners. They will look at u. S. Intelligence community to see if some database there an indication. Looking at the travel back and forth. People he may have traveled with. That sort of thing. Credit card records. They will look at cell phone records. To look for connectivity internationally.
