UPDATE: Channel 9 News in Oklahoma confirms the bomber, Joel Hinrichs had an unnamed Pakistani Roommate and several times visited the same mosque as Zacarias Moussaoui, the only person ever charged in connection with 9/11. Law enforcement continues to investigate and is attempting to track Hinrichs movements and whereabouts over the past several months.
The general manager of a Norman feed store said Tuesday that Joel Henry Hinrichs III had inquired about purchasing a significant amount of ammonium nitrate, the primary ingredient used in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.
Dustin Ellison, the general manager of Ellison Feed & Seed on Porter Avenue, said that a man matching Hinrichs’ description had come into the store days before he blew himself up on OU’s campus. Ellison said the man asked about ammonium nitrate, but couldn’t offer a reason why he needed it.
