And here comes the spin. Mow down people in your car, and if you are a muslim, you are merely "stressed"...... Relatives: San Fransisco Rampage suspect may have been stressed over wedding mercurynews ^ \| Tue, Aug. 29, 2006 \| James Hohmann and Katherine Corcoran mercurynews.com Relatives of a Fremont man connected to Tuesday's deadly driving rampage said he may have been distraught after returning recently from Afghanistan without his newlywed wife who iswaiting for a visa. Omeed Aziz Popal, 29, who sources said was being held by the San Francisco police, was normally a kind and gentle person, said Hamid Nekrawesh, 43, a first cousin in Fremont. But a recent trip to Afghanistan to participate in an arranged marriage could have caused him a lot of stress, Nekrawesh said. ``He was a very respectful, quiet, nice guy,'' Nekrawesh said. ``I've never seen him do anything violent.'' Zarghona Ramish of San Jose, who also identified herself as Popal's cousin, said he had been having strange dreams since returning a month ago from Afghanistan. Popal lives with his parents, younger brother and two younger sisters in a working-class neighborhood of one-story tract homes in west Fremont, Nekrawesh said. He worked at a Fremont tire store on Mowry Avenue, neighbors and relatives said, and he and his father also sold household items at Bay Area flea markets. He was born in Afghanistan, but came to the United States at a young age. Three months ago, he returned to his home country to marry, relatives said, and his wife's family was very traditional and strict. ``He grew up as a Western boy in the United States and went to Afghanistan to get married culturally over there,'' Nekrawesh said. Two doors down, longtime resident William Lofton said the family moved into the house about three years ago. ``He never spoke,'' Lofton said of Popal. ``He never said hello. He was quiet. He never opened his mouth.''
