Fusion Center tracks all crime threats

By Mannix Porterfield
REGISTER-HERALD REPORTER

CHARLESTON Waiting to board a plane for a West Coast destination, two men suddenly were removed from a passenger line by police at a Charleston airport.

One had information on the military. The other is carrying a book on explosives. A suitcase was crammed with batteries.

“We pulled them out of line because they were acting suspicious,” explained Tom Kirk, onetime superintendent of the West Virginia State Police.

“When we opened their luggage, they had all this stuff in their luggage.”

Kirk is handling a new mission in life, directing West Virginia’s fledgling fusion center, a new tack in the war on terrorism and crime in general.

See the complete story in Monday's edition of The Register-Herald.
