Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN Texas Gov. Rick Perry today issued the following statement on the arrest in Killeen of Pvt. Naser Jason Abdo:
Todays arrest is a sobering reminder of the importance of remaining vigilant in the ongoing efforts to protect our communities from those that would do us harm. I am proud of the teamwork displayed between members of the Killeen community Killeen Police Department and the FBI to recognize and report this individuals suspicious activity and subsequently locate and detain him.
Quick and diligent efforts like these save lives and we are reminded to be thankful for our peace officers and their continued dedication to keeping our communities and families safe. This incident also underscores the importance of citizens reporting something that doesnt seem quite right immediately to law enforcement.
Although details are still emerging regarding this incident we remain sensitive to the Killeen and Ft. Hood community which was deeply impacted by the shootings that took place not long ago. That tragic day remains vivid in all our memories and the lives lost will not be forgotten.
It is unfortunate that we live in a world where security remains an utmost concern but I am encouraged that lives will continue to be protected and potential attacks thwarted if we uphold the spirit of vigilance and cooperation displayed in this situation."
