Did Chattanooga shooter Mohammad Abdulazeez have help?

Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez, the gunman who allegedly killed four Marines and a Navy sailor last week in Tennessee, had downloaded audio recordings of Anwar al-Awlaki, the American-Yemeni cleric who was a recruiter for al Qaeda, law enforcement officials told NBC News.

The gunman also had CDs of al-Awlaki’s sermons, the officials said. Al-Awlaki was killed by an American drone strike in Yemen in 2011.

A law enforcement official also told NBC News that Abdulazeez’s uncle in Jordan is believed to be “radical” and officials are investigating whether he influenced Abdulazeez when he was living there. Abdulazeez traveled to Jordan from April to November 2014.
