There was no evidence that Kanstwas a member of any radical group, afd he has never been em- ployed by the CIA, he said. Bryant, the FBI special agent, said there is no indication that Kansi had any affiliation with any terrorist group. Fairfax County Police Chief Mi- chael W. Young said Kansi appears to have been operating alone but, he said, "there's a lot more work to do." Authorities followed several paths to the suspect. First, accord- ing to police, Kansi was reported missing three days after the shoot- ings. He had not been seen since the day of the shootings. Then, four days ago, police received a tip from Kansi's roommate, also Pakistami, who allowed police" to search his apartment. At the same time, federal law enforcement officials were studying gun purchases. They knew fromm past experience in such cases, im- cluding John Hinckley's attempted assassination of President Reagain, that killers often purchase their weapons within a relatively short time of their crimes. Officials of the federal Bureau ‹of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms dee- cided to check purchases of assault weapons in the Washington area iin the last year.

In the few moments it took for the suspect-described by police as a white male with a dark complex- ion between 20 and 30 years old, 145 to 165 pounds, with a medium build and dark brown or black, me- dium-length hair-to shoot and speed away, drivers in cars and buses ducked behind dashboards for cover.

Although both of the men who died lived in Reston, Horan said, police do not know of any connec- tion they had to Kansi. Bennett's wife, Inga Wells- Bennett, praised investigators yes- terday. "A lot of people have put in a lot of hours," she said. "I'm amazed they found something." Barrett and Jo Anne Burka, who were at the traffic light when the shooting happened and provided police with a description that led to the release of a composite drawing of the gunman, said yesterday the sight of Kansi's photograph on tele- vision frightened them. "Looking at it, psychologically, sent a chill down my spine," Barrett Burka said. "I can't say I recognized him, but certain things were familiar. The fuzzy cheeks. The smile. The almost benign appearance of him. We felt a certain amount of relief, and a certain amount of anger," he said. Staff writers DeNeen L.

Aimal Kansi was described by neighbors at his Reston low-rise apartment complex as a quiet man who did not seem remarkable in any way until he was named yesterday as the suspect in the methodical shooting rampage last month that killed two people outside CIA head- quarters in Langley. Police said Kansi is a 28-year-old Pakistani citizen who had been in the country illegally, but had been grant ed legal status under general immi- gration amnesty. He had a work per mit and was employed as a package "courier! He had never been a CIA employee, police said. They said he might have left the country, but that that has not yet been determined. Kansi is now the subject of a world- wide manhunt. Kansi's name came to light shortly after the Jan. 25 shootings, polide said, when his roommate reported him missing from their ground-floor unit at Laurel Glade Apartments in They said the apartment's occu- Reston, about 15 miles west of Washington. A privately owned subsidized de- velopment with 200 units, Laurel Glade is a well-kept three-story brick complex in the Hunters Woods section of Reston. The apartments are near the U.S. Geo- logical Survey and in the same neighborhood as Dogwood Elemen- tary School. Rents are moderate; a two-bed- room unit goes for $650 a month. No one answered the door yester- day at the apartment rented in the name of Ahmed Mir, a man neigh- bors described as being in his thir- ties. Resident manager Sandra Sly said Mir had rented the one-bedroom unit since October 1991. Although police said Mir had a roommate, Sly said his lease did not allow room- mates. Other residents of the building said they were not sure they recog- nized Kansi as their neighbor from the photograph shown on television. Several of them also said two or more men occupied the apartment. pants were quiet and reserved, though not unfriendly. Ghias Ahmed, who lives upstairs from the apartment where police said Kansi lived, said his neighbor "looks like a very regular guy" and often said hello. Ting Sourivong remembered Kansi differently. "He is so quiet," Sourivong said. "We never talked to him." Authorities did not release much information on Kansi or Mir, but neighbors said they thought one man drove a taxi and another worked in a grocery store. One of the men, ac- cording to one neighbor, drove an ash-colored station wagon; police have described the gunman's car as a medium-brown station wagon. Neighbors said they realized something was amiss on Monday, when police stopped by the building I several. times. Yesterday, they said, two men who appeared to be under cover officers watched the buildinge from across the street in a van. Neighbors said they were puzzledu and terrified at seeing Kansi's face! on the evening news. "It's very; Sou scary, especially happening in this neighborhood," said James rivong, 20, who lives across the halla Sly said her tenant, Mir, is a re sponsible man who paid his bills time. She said she felt sorry for because of the notoriety attached someone mentioned in connection with such a high-profile case. "The gentleman that lived theri was a nice man," she said about Mig "I never had a problem." Staff writer Patricia Davis contributed to this report.

Sources said yesterday that the fingerprints will be most useful if they are of sufficient quality to use In a computer screening process, if they are indeed those of the gun- man and if the gunman has been arrested for a felony. The FBI has on its computer only the prints of people arrested for felonies. Mil- lions of others exist in paper files, Which must be searched by hand. The CIA has planned a memorial service at its headquarters today for Lansing H. Bennett, 66, of Res- lon, a physician and intelligence Analyst, and Frank Darling, 28, of Reston, who worked in covert op- trations. Security was especially ight again yesterday at all en- frances to the complex. officials Bennett and Darling were in their cars at a stoplight on Dolley Madison Boulevard (Route 123), preparing to turn into the CIA en- trance, when the gunman suddenly emerged from a car and opened fire shortly before 8 a.m. Monday. Two other CIA employees, Nicholas Starr, 60, and Calvin Morgan, 61, were wounded. They continued to show improvement at Fairfax Hos- pital, where their conditions were upgraded yesterday to fair. The third injured man, Stephen H. Williams, who was treated for superficial wounds and released Monday, works for a CIA contrac- tor. All were stopped at the light. Franklin said police now believe the gunman stopped his car-de- scribed as a dark, medium-sized automobile-directly behind Ben- nett's Saab in one of the turn lanes. After the shooting, witnesses said, he maneuvered the car past Ben- nett's and continued east on Route 123. Then he vaniched, leaving be hind the victims and dozens of wit- nesses, many too shocked to recall details. Police found at least seven shell casings near the cars, including at least one that yielded a fingerprint, sources said. Authorities said the shell would have been touched as it was being loaded into the gun's clip. which car the other fingerprint was retrieved. Fingerprints believed to be those of the gunman who killed two men and wounded three others outside the CIA's Langley headquarters Monday have been discovered on one of the victim's cars and on a shell casing, sources close to the investigation said yesterday. Based on the size of shell casings left at the scene of the bloody rush- hour incident, investigators also have determined that the gun used Monday was one of a few basic models of the AK-47-type assault rifle. Each carries 10 to 30 rounds of ammunition and is available at local gun stores. Investigators have been canvass- ing gun stores throughout the Washington area in hopes that Mon- day's gunman had bought his weap- on recently, police said. Although many hurdles remain, law enforcement sources said the fingerprints, if they match those in FBI computer files, could provide a major break leading them to a sus- pect, or could at least help them target or eliminate people who are brought in for questioning. Fairfax County police Capt. Da- vid Franklin, head of the depart- ment's Major Crime Division, de- clined to discuss any findings yes- terday. He said there has been no "final analysis" of the evidence. "We've received a lot of good leads," Franklin said at a news brief- ing. "All of these leads are being investigated. I personally feel that we're making progress, but it's a slow and tedious process." Franklin said that since the inci- dent, police have received more than 400 calls with information on the incident via a special 24-hour- a-day phone line staffed by inves- tigators. "There are a lot of people we've been given information about," he said. "I wouldn't characterize any of See SHOOTING, A12, Col. 1 CPYRGHT details. least one that yielded a fingerprint, sources said. Authorities said the shell would have been touched as it was being loaded into the gun's clip. It was not clear last night from which car the other fingerprint was retrieved. - Depending on their quality, the prints can be entered into the FBI's computerized fingerprint laborato- ry, which has prints from more than 25 million people arrested by fed- eral, state and local police depart- ments. Leslie J. Wallace, a spokeswoman for the FBI, said the bureau also : maintains fingerprints of more than 42 million other people, including all military personnel and other fed- bral employees, some police, and vorkers in places such as banks hat must register prints under fed- ral law. The length of time it takes to dentify a fingerprint depends greatly on its clarity, Wallace said, dding, "Under ideal conditions, it an take two to three hours, but it ould take up to two to three days r even longer." FBI specialists in computerized Ingerprinting were not available to Explain how the computer cheek. ingerprints. But other specialists said the computer reads lines, loops and other fingerprint features and selects potential matches that then Illust be reviewed visually by lab- qatory analysts. The computer can review millions of fingerprints and select 25 candidates in seconds. One private consultant said that even partial prints or smudges, al- though less desirable, can be en- hanced and run through computers a search for a match. Law enforcement sources said the dimensions of the shell casings led them to believe that the gunman probably used one of several basic hds of semiautomatic military- style firearms: an SKS, a gas-oper- ated rifle with 10 rounds, or a vari- atton of the AK-47, the most widely used assault rifle in the world, such as the AKM. Both the AK-47 and the AKM carry 30-round maga- ziles. Such weapons have been used in other recent multiple shoot- ings across the nation. Authorities said they plan to show pictures of the guns to wit- nesses in the CIA shooting in hopes of pinpointing the kind of weapon CPYRGHT .. Those who track cases ot ma violence said the choice of firearr suggested that Monday's assault w well planned and that the gunman h a strong mission-possibly, one sai a war with the CIA.

Against Odds, Trauma Team Saved Life, Limb of Langley Victim Approved For Release 2001/04/02 : CIA-RDP96-00789R002400510001-9 VICTIMS, From Bl Morgan suffered at least one gunshot wound to his left arm. Medical authorities said the bullet traveled up his arm and lodged be- hind his ear. The two men were wounded by a gunman who fired at close range as "they sat in their cars waiting for a Flight to change on Dolley Madison Boulevard (Route 123). Two men died at the scene, while a third mo- torist was treated at Arlington Hos- pital and released. Starr underwent nearly 12 hours of surgery at. Fairfax Hospital on Monday. Morgan was in the operat- ing room a few hours. Starr, who con- sented to allowing his doctor to dis- cuss his case, underwent additional surgery yesterday afternoon to re- dress his wound, Trask said. When he recovers, Starr will have some impairment in his left arm because one of its three major nerves was severed and another nerve is not working, according to the doctor. Because of the blood loss Starr suffered, hospital workers put out an urgent call Monday morning for donors, especially those with his rare O-negative blood type. More than 250 people-four times the usual donor pool-showed up, cre- ating a two-hour backup at the Blood Donor Services office. Anoth- er 200 people gave blood Tuesday. David Gens, an assistant profes- sor of surgery at the University of Maryland's Shock Trauma Center, said the key to saving severely in- jured people is to get them to a good trauma facility quickly. "Minutes are important," espe- cially with substantial blood loss, Gens said. "If it's true [Starr] lost his entire blood volume, then 45 minutes, for example, might have meant death." While praising the efforts of his trauma staff, Trask said there was nothing particularly unusual or he- roic in their efforts to save Starr's life. "This happens in trauma centers almost every day," he said. "It's just that they're usually not working at the CIA. And they're usually not shot with an AK-47."

:Appro ved For Release 2001/04/02 : CIA Shooting Investigators Looking for a Marksman Weren't Too Many Shots Wasted,' Source Says By Patricia Davis and Bill Miller Washington Post Staff Writers Fairfax County's chief prosecutor nd others investigating last week's hooting outside the CIA's head- uarters said yesterday that they elieve the gunman is a skilled harksman. "From all the evidence available, his was a very efficient gunman," aid Commonwealth's Attorney Robert F. Horan Jr. "He certainly kas well armed." "It's obvious to those of us in the usiness, there weren't too many hots wasted," said a source close the investigation. Horan declined to discuss any ev- lence in the incident, but sources said .the gunman fired at least 10 rounds, hitting the five victims eight times. A source said the guir man, who parked a brown compact station wagon behind one the vic- tim's cars, fired shots as he moved toward the front of the line of traffic waiting to enter the complex, then continued shooting on his way back to his car. . Two men were killed and three others were wounded by what police have described as an AK-47 type of semiautomatic assault rifle shortly before 8 a.m. as they sat waiting to turn left from Dolley Madison Bou- levard (Route 123) into CIA head- quarters, in Langley.

CPYRGHT Washington Post 5 Febq3 SPYRCHT": tims were CIA employees and the GIA RDP96-00789R00240051 While investigators suspect the gunman may have a grudge against the CIA, they still have no motive for the shootings. "Some people want to say this is a real crazed wacko as op- posed to some cold, calculating hit man or someone with a mission against the CIA," Horan said. "Any conclusion is pure speculation." Police sources and others familiar with firearms said proficiency with an AK-47 type of weapon, a military as- sault rifle capable of firing 10 or more rounds, could come through practice or military training. Edward Ezell, the firearms cu- rator at the National Museum of American History, said it "was pret- ty amazing" that the gunman was able to hit so many people in such a short time. The gunman's apparent choice of only male targets, bypassing at least two women, showed that he had some skill with the weapon, Ezell said. He added that the events demonstrated some preparation by the gunman, rather than a spur-of- the-moment shooting. However, some gun experts said it doesn't take a lot of expertise to shoot someone with a rifle from as close as three feet. "That's point-blank range," said Hayward Long, owner of the Blue Ridge Arsenal, an indoor firing Fange and gun shop in Chantilly. 'Anyone can do that. It doesn't take skill. That weapon is not all that complicated to use." Long and two other area gun shop officials said skill usually is re- quired when shooting an AK-47 type of weapon at a distance. But others noted that the gunman was firing under stressful conditions, in a hurry and moving. They sug- gested he might have prepared for the shooting at a firing range. Law enforcement authorities called the owner of Clark Brothers firing range in Warrenton, Va., last week to ask if anyone matching the gunman's description had practiced with an assault weapon recently. The range, about a 90-minute drive from CIA headquarters, is open to the public. "It does make you perk up and take notice," said Steve Clark, the owner. "The composite picture is pretty much anybody, unfortunate- ly. I'd like nothing better than to turn in somebody like this." Meanwhile, Nicholas Starr, one of the three men wounded in the shooting, was released from Fairfax Hospital yesterday, 11 days after he 001-9 "From all the evidence available, this was a very efficient gunman." - Robert F.
