MAN CHARGED IN SLAYINGS OUTSIDE CIA
A 28-year-old man was charged Tuesday with capital murder in connection with the Jan. 25 shootings outside the CIA's Langley headquarters.
The man has been reported missing by his roommate, and a manhunt is under way, law enforcement officials said.
The warrant charging Mir Aimal Kansi of Reston, a legal alien from Pakistan, was issued shortly after a Chinese-made AK-47 assault rifle was seized from his apartment Tuesday and firearms experts concluded that it had fired the casings found at the scene of the shootings.
"There's a worldwide manhunt being launched at this time," Robert Bryant, special agent in charge of the FBI's Washington, D.C., field office, said at a news conference at Fairfax County police headquarters. "Mr. Kansi will be put on the FBI's top 10 list."
Officials characterized Tuesday's events as a "rapidly developing situation" and said they have not determined a motive for the shootings, which left two men dead and three injured.
Police have seized the truck Kansi was licensed to drive and still are searching for the dull-brown compact station wagon that witnesses described as the vehicle used by the suspect. Neighbors at the Laurel Glade apartment complex where Kansi lived said Tuesday that he drove an ash-colored station wagon. Neighbors described Kansi, a courier, as quiet.
