And we did check with several businesses here and where that crash ended after this pursuit, and none of them say they have any good perspective or capture exactly what happeped here o o there, but Miami Gardens police tell us this evening at this point it looks s ke this was an individual act and not terrorism. Were live in Miami Gardens, amy viteri, local10 news. Laurie and local10 news has learned the fbi is now involved in the investigation, trying to figure out if the suspect has any ties to isis because the terrorist gup is using social media to call for attacks on Police Officers. Local10s todd tongen continues our Live Team Coverage nowow from Miami Gardens police headquarters. Todd. Todd laurie, now the investigation focuses very heavily on that 24yearold suspect from aventura, david andres mejia. Here is a mugshot of mejia from a previous arrest. He is charged with nune felony counts, including four attempted murder of a Law Enforcement officer charges, resisting by a convicted philopoenas tow trucks brought the suspects bmw in a bullet riddled Police Vehicle the to miami police station, local10 local10 can confirm the fbi has been here questioning the suspect, and hes not cooperating. Mejias mugshot in a previous arrest shows his neck filled with tattoos including a large one in the is there center of his throat depicting the eye of providence. Ooh eyeball within a trianane represents the allseeing eye of god and most notely appears on winds bill. The feds want to find out if this is an isolated incident orr a terroristac attack. One reason terrorism is being looked at is because of the ambush on a police offic in philadelphia. Jesse hartnett was fired 15 times. Hartnett was able to return fire. The suspect slipped away but was later taken into custody. He told police that he shot the cop in the name of islam and the islamic state, and Law Enforcement is well aware isis has called for supporters to target Police Officers. So whatever this gentleman was going through, were going to find out, were goingo find out if there was a morph, but for right now he ambushed someone who was protecting, who is employed to protect and serve sour citizens. Todd 24yearold mejia is originalal from queens, new york. He is now living inventura. Niece stranger to Law Enforcement. The bigger question now is why did he target this Police Officer, exactly what was his tive, and thats why the fbi, federal agents have been here througho the day trying to question him. We understand he has been uncooperative. So far the police and the fbi have not made any sort of a link between this attack and any terrorist threat.
