The FBI said Monday that it found a link between the gunman in a deadly attack at a military base last December and an al-Qaida operative.
Attorney General William Barr and FBI Director Chris Wray held a news conference to announce developments in the shooting late last year at the Pensacola Naval Air Station.
On December 6, Saudi Air Force 2nd Lt. Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani killed three U. S. sailors and injured eight others at Pensacola Naval Air Station. The 21-year-old gunman was fatally shot during the attack.
The Justice Department had previously asked Apple to help extract data from two iPhones that belonged to the gunman, including one that authorities say Alshamrani damaged with a bullet after being confronted by law enforcement.
«We received, effectively, no help from Apple,» FBI Director Christopher Wray said Monday.
