FBI Kills Islamic Leader -Nick Bunkley

FBI agents fatally shot Luqman Ameen Abdullah, 53, described as the leader of a violent Sunni Muslim separatist group.

Abdullah, whom the agents were trying to arrest in Dearborn on charges that included illegal possession and sale of firearms and conspiracy to sell stolen goods, refused to surrender and began firing at them from a warehouse.

Abdullah trained his followers in the use of firearms, martial arts and sword fighting, and directed them to conduct an "offensive jihad" against the U.S. government.
