Did Seattle double-Murder/Terrorist suspect target gay victims using Grindr app?

SEATTLE — Ali Muhammed Brown, charged with killing two men in Seattle on June 1, is a radical jihadist who targeted his victims using an app popular among gays, law enforcement sources said Tuesday.

Many in the gay community are shaken at news that a killer may have used the popular social media app Grindr to lure Ahmed Said, 27, and Dwone Anderson-Young, 23, to their deaths.

“It’s a shame that any social media network is becoming suspicious and everybody has to be careful and really know who they`re talking to,” said concerned resident Thomas Kennedy.

Investigators believe Brown, 30, used Grindr — an app that enables gay men to use their cellphone’s GPS locator to meet other gays in the area — and met up with Said and Anderson-Young after they left R Place, a popular gay bar on Capitol Hill, on the night of May 31


No motive for the killings was listed in the charging documents.


However, sources tell Q13 FOX News that Brown underwent jihadist training in California in April and they believe the two men were attacked simply because their sexual orientation offended what police say are Brown’s radical Muslim beliefs.
