Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Moussoui also found in Minnesota?
WASHINGTON (CNN)--Three of the 11 Egyptian students who failed to show up at a Montana university last month were taken into custody Wednesday.The FBI on Saturday issued a nationwide alert to law enforcement agencies. Included were the students' names, ages, passport numbers and photographs.
"At the present time there are no known associations to any terrorist groups. Approach with caution," the lookout bulletin said.
Two were found in New Jersey, according to two law enforcement officials, one of whom said they turned themselves in to authorities. No further information was available.
Eslam Ibrahim Mohamed El-Dessouki, 21, was arrested without incident about 11 a.m. (noon ET) in Minneapolis, Minnesota, according to a statement from FBI Special Agent Richard Kolko.
"El-Dessouki was taken into custody on an administrative immigration violation as an out-of-status student," Kolko said.
El-Dessouki "was located through source information," a federal law enforcement official said.
There was no indication what El-Dessouki was doing in Minnesota, but he was not visiting relatives, the official said.
Oh I'm sure he was just sight-seeing (cough....bullshit...cough)

Walk around Minneapolis these days, you'd swear you were in Riyadh. It used to be a perfectly nice town. What the hell happened?!?!?
