After reporting on Minnesota ISIS recruit Douglas McArthur McCain, R.E.A.L. has also learned of other Minnesota recruits from America to the ISIS terrorist organization.  Friends of Douglas McArthur McCain also appear to have become involved with ISIS.

Minneapolis native-turned ISIS combatant, father-of-nine Abdirahmaan Muhumed, 29, had also been killed.    KMSP-TV reported that Abdirahmaan Muhumed, previously identified as an ISIS-recruited, homegrown terrorist, apparently died in terrorist-on-terrorist clashes during August 23 – 24, 2014.

On a side note, on September 9, 2014, FOX 9 News reported that Minnesota ISIS recruits have had airport access: “the man who came to be known as Abdirahmaan Muhumed and died fighting alongside ISIS in Syria spent 10 years working at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport — and had a lot of access. Fox 9 News has obtained more information on the Minneapolis airport work history of a Minnesota man killed while fighting for ISIS in Syria. Abdirahmaan Muhumed – known to airport officials as Abdifatah Ahmed – worked as both a fueler and a cleaner between November 2001 and May 2011. Law enforcement sources confirm to Fox 9 that Abdifatah Ahmed and Abdirahmaan Muhumed are the same person.  According to the Metropolitan Airports Commission, Ahmed held a Secure Identification Display Area (SIDA) security badge intermittently between November 2001 and October 2010 to perform work as a fueler for ASIG, later known as Servisair. Ahmed was again issued a SIDA badge in November 2010 to work as a cleaner for Delta Global Services. Delta Air Lines switched its aircraft cleaner services at MSP Airport from Delta Global Services to Airserve earlier this year.  These jobs gave Ahmed security clearance at the airport, access to the tarmac and access to planes. He has not held a security badge to work at MSP Airport since May 2011.  It remains unclear when exactly Abdirahmaan Muhumed, a.k.a. Abdifatah Ahmed, left the Twin Cities to fight with ISIS. He died in the same battle as Douglas McCain, who was also from Minnesota. Authorities estimate that as many as 15 men and one woman have left the Twin Cities to fight with ISIS.”
