(Detroit Free Press) The suspect in the Temple Israel attack has been identified by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as a 41-year-old immigrant from Lebanon who is a U.S. citizen.

Ayman Mohamad Ghazali carried out "the tragic attack on Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield," a spokesperson for the department told the Free Press in a statement late March 12. Ghazali was killed in the attack, a security guard was injured and the temple partially burned in a fire.

The department did not say where Ghazali lived. A neighbor told the Detroit Free Press he lived in Dearborn Heights, west of Detroit, and recently lost family in an Israeli strike in Lebanon. Dearborn Heights Mayor Mo Baydoun said in a statement the suspect "lost several members of his own family, including his niece and nephew, in an Israeli attack on their home in Lebanon" earlier in March.

Ghazali was born in Lebanon in January 1985 and entered the U.S. in May 2010 on an IR1 immigrant visa as the spouse of a U.S. citizen, DHS said. He had filed alien relative and fiancé petitions in December 2009, which were approved in April 2010. ...................(more)
