Motorcycle confrontation. New details emerging this morning. 34ris say at least six men involved in the assault on an suv driver, including stomping on his head. Good morning to you. Welcome to early start. Im zoraida sambolin. Im john berman. Hope you had a great weekend. It is monday, october 7th. 4 00 a. M. In the east. U. S. Special forces staging two raids in africa and capturing a very big target. This man is al qaeda operative Abu Anas Al Libi. Wanted for the bombingings in kenya and tanzania. He is a key figure possibly with a treasure atroptrove of al qae workings. All of this while navy s. E. A. L. S were staging another raid 3,000 miles away in somalia. We are live from nairobi this morning. What can you tell us about these dual raids . We understand from a wife, mass men ambushed her husbands car when he was back from prayers on saturday morning. He said he reached for the handgun he keeps in his glove compartment but it was already too late. She said these were libyans. They were speaking with libyan accent and the Libyan Government said they werent told this was taking place. U. S. Say this was done with the perms of the Libyan Government. How does this tie to the s. E. A. L. S who took the militant group for a the heartland . Both of the men they were after, we only have one name here at the moment where the u. S. Department reward for justice list and both to have been believed involved in the 1998 u. S. Embassy bombings. In somalia, while the u. S.

Naval vessel perhaps in the mediterranean being questioned. We are hearing he is on his way to a court perhaps in new york but we are still verifying that. For many years, he has maintained that he renounced al qaeda and he stepped away from that organization and all it represented but the reality is that he knows an awful lot about what was happening during the hey day of al qaedas operations. Some of this see the cleanup to tie the loose ends of those operatives still out there in the field who knew exactly what happened in the 1998 u. S. Bombings but here in kenya, especially the horrific terror tacks in nairobi that the Al Qaedalinked militant Group Al Shabaab was a part of they see this as the operations that continue to operate in this area and we are just learning there is a link between one of the al shabaab militants who with carried out the kenya mall attack and anas al libi. He was killed in the u. S. Soil and part of the 91 u. S. Bombing ring and one of the mall attackers is a relatives of his and a lot of information that im sure the u. S. Intelligence agencies would be very keen to get their hands on from libya in the days ahead, john. No doubt. Thank you. A lot going on. Special forces on the move. Thanks. 4 00 minutes past the hour.
