DALLAS — The FBI has issued an intelligence warning for Dallas-area law enforcement officers because of information that an alleged leader of the Aryan Brotherhood is trying to gather the names of federal agents, state troopers and police officers, according to a broadcast report. Dallas-Fort Worth television station KTVT reported Tuesday that the intelligence bulletin warns that an alleged Aryan Brotherhood leader awaiting trial is seeking out members of the brotherhood who were recruited as police informants to gather the information about officers.
The FBI fears the officers' names could be used to locate their residences, telephone numbers or undercover status.
The intelligence bulletin also warns of a possible threat from members of the Aryan Circle threatening to steal weapons from the homes and cars of officers.
The FBI said an intelligence bulletin means there's enough information for a warning.
