Let's see. Police found this guy walking around at 4:00 AM at a Quick Chek store in New Jersey, wearing a bulletproof vest, a military-style jacket, and a rifle with a filed-off serial number, that fires .50 caliber ammo. He runs from them, and they chase and catch him. In his room they find a night-vision scope, another bulletproof vest, a grenade launcher, a map of a military base, and a middle-eastern headdress.

Nope, no links to terrorism here. I don't see any, do you? Why in the world would we think this had anything to do with terrorism?

BRANCHBURG, N.J. (CBS/AP) What exactly Lloyd R. Woodson intended to do with a cache of semi automatic rifles, a grenade launcher, night vision goggles and a map of a U.S. military base is not yet clear, say New Jersey police, but they arrested the 43-year-old on multiple weapons charges after he led them on a chase through the woods.

Somerset County Prosecutor Wayne Forrest said Woodson was wearing a bulletproof vest and carrying a semiautomatic Bushmaster rifle concealed under his green, military-style jacket when, shortly before 4 a.m. Monday, officers encountered him at a Quick Chek store in Branchburg, N.J., about an hour west of New York City.

As officers started to question him, Woodson fled on foot toward a nearby trailer park, Forrest said. Officers found him hiding in some bushes and tackled him when he tried to run away again. The officers used pepper spray to subdue him.

Forrest said the rifle Woodson was carrying had a defaced serial number and had been altered to fire .50-caliber ammunition.

When detectives later searched his room at the Red Mill Inn in Branchburg, they seized another Bushmaster .308-caliber semiautomatic rifle with a defaced serial number, a 37 mm Cobray grenade launcher, a second bulletproof vest, a Russian-made night vision scope, a police scanner, maps of a U.S. military facility and hundreds of rounds of .50-caliber and .308-caliber ammunition. They also found a Middle Eastern-style headdress, according to CNN.

Woodson is being held at the Somerset County Jail on numerous charges, including unlawful possession of weapons, possession of prohibited weapons, obstruction of justice and resisting arrest.

The FBI says Woodson has no known terrorism links.

It's just swamp gas folks move along. Wouldn't want them to have to list this as another terror attempt. It's got to look like there just aren't that many of them. You know the "small minority" thing.
