Since the arrests of 17 suspects in Canada 10 days ago, federal agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms have been canvassing pawn shops and gun stores in the Columbus area for evidence. Sources say the ATF agents have already identified three or four handguns that two suspects purchased in Ohio, using local women as intermediaries. Mohammed Dirie, 22, and Yasam Abdi Mohamed, 24, were arrested on gun charges last August after crossing the border at Buffalo, New York on the way back to Canada. They were among the 17 charged in the terror plot. The serial numbers of the guns seized in raids in Canada June 2 are being compared with guns sold in at the Columbus area stores. Sources say it is not yet clear why the two Canadian suspects traveled to Columbus to buy guns. However, the U.S. has no national registry of firearm purchases.
