DEARBORN -- A 26-year-old man is being held on $1 million cash bond on gun charges after he was found leaving a city park Sept. 8 with an AK-47.
Houssein Zorkot was arraigned Tuesday before 19th District Judge Mark Somers on two felony charges in the incident at Hemlock Park.
Dearborn police responded to a call that there was a man in the park carrying a gun. Police stopped Zorkot's sport utility vehicle as he was leaving the park. He was wearing dark clothes that could camouflage him at night.
After his arrest, police sought a warrant at the man's home, where they seized a laptop computer and several pictures. No other guns were found in the house.
The man also had visited Lebanon within the past month, police said.

Houssein Zorkot is an unusual name, and if you Google it, you find that he has a website. http://www.zorkot.org/Houssein2.html

On his website, he praises Hezbollah, and if you follow the gallery link, you find this:

The picture is captioned "The Start of My Personal Jihad (in the US)".

Interesting development. Glad they captured this armed Jihadi before he harmed anyone.
