Two men who the FBI had been looking for since passengers reported them acting strangely on a Washington state ferry last August have been found and are not considered a threat.
The FBI says the two European citizens showed up at the U.S. Embassy two weeks ago as the men in the photographs released to the media. “They didn’t want to be arrested by they did want to keep coming to the United States, so they came to the U.S Embassy about two weeks ago to identify themselves,” said Laura Laughlin, FBI Special Agent in Charge.
The pair was spotted on ferries taking pictures last July. Other passengers told police, who then notified the FBI. When they feds couldn’t find them, they went public.
