One of the gunmen who attacked a Dallas art exhibition on Sunday had been on the FBI’s watch list since 2007. 30 year old Elton Simpson and his accomplice Nadir Soofi were shot to death by a police officer shortly after they arrived at a community center where artists were displaying depictions of the Prophet Mohammed. The FBI has raided Mr. Simpson’s home in Phoenix as the investigation into the foiled attack continues. Simon reported the story for Radio New Zealand's nightly "Checkpoint" broadcast.
