Afghan terror suspect ‘disappeared’ roughly 2 weeks before ambushing National Guard troops in DC, neighbor says

An Afghan suspected terrorist “disappeared” roughly two weeks before he allegedly ambushed and shot two National Guard soldiers in Washington, DC, one of his neighbors revealed.

Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, lived a quiet life in Bellingham, Washington, but struggled to find work, neighbor Mohammad Sherzard told the Associated Press.

“He was so quiet and the kids were so polite, they were so playful. But we didn’t see anything bad about him. He was looking OK,” Sherzad said.

He added that Lakanwal “disappeared” about two weeks ago – a handful of days before federal prosecutors said he gunned down 20-year-old Sarah Beckstrom and left her fellow Guardsman, Andrew Wolfe, 24, critically wounded just blocks from the White House on Wednesday.

Sherzad described Lakanwal as polite, quiet and speaking very little English.

He said other members of their shared mosque said Lakanwal had run into trouble finding work.

Lakanwal had worked as a driver for Amazon Flex starting in late July, but stopped delivering packages in August, the Associated Press reported.

Sherzad and Amazon representatives didn’t return The Post’s requests for further comment.
