If the following from MSNBC is accurate, it does appear authorities have their killers: ... BLOOM AND NBC’s Pete Williams cited sources as saying the two were tied to the sniper attacks via several leads: - A Tacoma, Wash., home once lived in by Muhammad was searched Wednesday and investigators found bullet fragments as well as a tree stump that had been used as target practice. - A caller to the FBI tip line had bragged that a Montgomery, Ala., shooting in September was tied to the sniper, and Malvo’s fingerprints were reportedly found at that scene. Police on Thursday confirmed a call to the tip line but would not comment on the report of fingerprints. - Malvo’s prints reportedly were also found on a piece of paper at one of the sniper crime scenes. - A Jamaican bank account provided by the person communicating with police was tied to Malvo, said to have been born in Jamaica. In addition, the Baltimore Sun and Seattle Times reported that investigators had received a tip about Muhammad from a Tacoma-area phone. A federal source told the Seattle Times that a friend of Muhammad’s and Malvo’s, made the call, saying he “had suspicions” about the pair. The tipster reportedly said the two sometimes took target practice at the Tacoma home even though it is in the middle of a densely populated neighborhood. The source added that the tipster said the two fired a rifle that uses .223 caliber bullets, the same as those in the sniper attacks. msnbc.com
