Sudden Jihad Syndrome in San Francisco?

If the MainSewerMedia (an unpaid adjunct of Hezbollah these days) have their way, Americans will never find out:

SAN FRANCISCO -- As many as 14 people were injured this afternoon by a motorist who drove around San Francisco running them down before he was arrested, authorities said.

Seven of those injured were in critical condition, police and firefighters said. Authorities have identified the man who was arrested as Omeed Aziz Popal, who has addresses in Ceres (Stanislaus County) and Fremont.

Authorities said they believe Popal was the same driver who ran over and killed a 55-year-old man walking in a bicycle lane in Fremont, at Fremont Boulevard near Ferry Lane, just after noon. That crash scene is just blocks from Popal's Fremont address, where he had most recently been living.

According to this report from the San Jose Mercury News the culprit is in custody. He is described as a "relatively young man" and nothing else.

Hat tip: Pastorius at IBA.

Update: The MainSewerMedia will on occasion actually give details (including a picture) of an arrested polygamist, multiple cell phone owning religious nut:

The sect, long based in an enclave on the twin border towns of Hildale, Utah, and Colorado City, Arizona, split from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints when the mainstream Mormon Church banned polygamy more than a century ago.

But, you already knew where that was going, didn't you?
Comments:
Omeed Aziz Popal? Sounds Islamic; perhaps this is a new form of terrorism...
