ISIS Graffiti In Northwest D.C. Puts FBI On Alert

WASHIINGTON (WJLA) – With the FBI on alert for home-grown terrorists, the agency is monitoring troubling cases of vandalism in Northwest D.C. that seem to express support for so-called Islamic State militants.

Graffiti on a traffic camera at the busy intersection of Connecticut Avenue NW and Calvert Street NW reads, in Arabic, “Allah Akbar” followed by “ISIS,” referring to the terror group.

“It’s strange,” said tourist Lacey Rase. “I don’t know why anyone would do that.”

“It probably was a prank,” said D.C. resident Tim Schwedes. “I’m not going to announce it to anybody if I actually plan on doing something.”

Why blame it on a Gang.It probably is our own law enforcement trying to get some grant funds.
