A competency examination for a third-year medical student Houssein Zorkot, 26, is scheduled for Thursday, Dec.14 at 9 a.m.

Zorkot appeared in court last Friday, but according to court officials had not been examined prior to the court date. His attorney requested additional time, a request granted by Judge William Hultgren.

Zorkot you might remember was arrested Sept. 8 after witnesses observed him dressed in dark clothing and wearing black face paint, carrying a loaded AK-47 in a Dearborn park.

Zorkot attempted to elude police when they arrived on the scene but was eventually tasered, subdued and taken into custody.

Evidence technicians searched Zorkot’s vehicle and found several suspicious items, including a military combat belt with a canteen and two knives, a list of metropolitan Detroit shooting ranges, numerous photographs of Zorkot standing in front of billboards depicting “various Muslim extremists,” a briefcase containing a laptop and a cell phone.

Zorkot has not been identified as a terrorist by law enforcement officials however, his actions that night as well as his website, zorkot.org are arguably cause for concern. On his website Zorkot actively supports the terrorist organization Hezzbollah and in one photo proclaims “the start of his own personal Jihad” against the United States.
