FBI director emphasizes counter-terrorism

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — A week after a Rochester man was charged with supporting Islamic terrorists, FBI Director James Comey said counter-terrorism remains the bureau’s top priority but threats in the Internet age range from al-Qaeda offshoots to the angry loner downloading bomb designs.

Comey, visiting the FBI’s Albany Field Office on Tuesday, met with his agents and local authorities. He said afterward that finding the next threat will likely depend on someone who notices something amiss and speaks up.
