Men Stopped For 2008 Speedway Pics
FHP Memo Says Men Were 'Potential Terrorists'

Daytona Speedway
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- Four men who were stopped in July 2008 after they were observed taking photos of the Daytona International Speedway never posed a terrorist threat, an FBI agent said Friday.

One of the men was on a law enforcement watch list, but the men were never arrested and they were released after agents determined that they didn't pose a terrorist threat, said Special Agent Jeff Westcott.

"It really didn't turn out to be anything," Westcott said.

Cain followed the van as FBI agents and Florida Department of Law Enforcement agents were contacted. As the van passed the speedway, one of the passengers took photographs of the facility, the memo said.

Cain tailed the van for almost an hour until FDLE agents arrived, and together they conducted a traffic stop on the van. The men in the van were separated and interviewed and at first denied having a camera. The camera was found in the van during a search, the FHP memo said.

The men, who are former residents of Trinidad, were turned over to the FBI.

Westcott said Cain did the right thing by stopping the van and having the men vetted by the FBI.
