The man accused of shooting another man to death at the Greyhound Bus Station in Springfield last week had 37 rounds of ammunition in a backpack, according to search warrant returns filed in Greene County.
The FBI has been brought in to the investigation because of the “language barrier” of Dawod.  Authorities will not comment on if the attack could be connected to 9/11.

Witnesses told police that Mohamed Dawod shot Justin Hall to death as they stood in line to board a bus to St. Louis.  He has been charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action for the “unprovoked” attack on Hall.

According to search warrant returns Dawod was wearing a knife with a 9 and a 1/2 inch blade in a sheath on his belt.   He was also in possession of a passport, several miscellaneous pieces of identification, and had a GPS system in his luggage.  He also had paperwork for accommodations in Boston.

The court documents show police found the following items in the gym bag:

• boots
• 9 shirts
• a phone charger
• bank records and other miscellaneous papers
• four pairs of socks
• a black nylon pouch, and
• a remote control

Authorities found the following items in the backpack:

• several miscellaneous items and papers
• a bag
• an inverter
• a GPS device and GPS stand
• a black ammunition magazine
• 37 .22-caliber rifle rounds
• a passport
• a cellular telephone, and
• miscellaneous identification cards for Dawod
