As officers started to question him, Woodson fled on foot toward a nearby trailer park, Forrest said. Officers found him hiding in some bushes and tackled him when he tried to run away again. The officers used pepper spray to subdue him.
Forrest said the .223-caliber assault rifle that Woodson was carrying had a defaced serial number and had been altered to fire .50-caliber ammunition.
Detectives later searched the room where Woodson had been staying at the Red Mill Inn in Branchburg. Forrest said they seized another Bushmaster .308-caliber semiautomatic rifle with a defaced serial number, a 37 mm Cobray grenade launcher, a second bulletproof vest, a Russian-made night vision scope, a police scanner, a map of a U.S. military installation and a map of an out-of-state civilian community, a Middle Eastern red and white colored traditional headdress and hundreds of rounds of .50-caliber and .308-caliber ammunition.
Woodson is being held at the Somerset County Jail on numerous charges, including unlawful possession of weapons, possession of prohibited weapons, obstruction of justice and resisting arrest.
Bail has not yet been set. Woodson was tentatively scheduled for an initial court appearance at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Spokesman Jack Bennett said the prosecutor's office did not know whether Woodson had retained a lawyer.
Forrest said investigators from the FBI and the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives have joined the investigation.
The FBI issued a statement: "Presently, there does not appear to be a link to terrorism; Woodson does not appear to have a link to any known terrorist groups, nor a specific terrorist plot. However, the matter is still under investigation and these should only be considered preliminary findings. It is possible that Mr. Woodson could face federal gun charges, but that has yet to be determined. At this time, the matter is being worked as a state case out of the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office."
Authorities in New Jersey say Woodson's last known address is on Generation Drive in Reston. On Monday night, Fox 5 went to that neighborhood, but residents we spoke with did not recognize Woodson's photograph.
Woodson was being held at the Somerset County Jail on charges including unlawful possession of weapons.

None...so far.
But our rival high school did have two deaths by stabbings, and my college has had a rape and a shooting in 2009.
We're such a fun state! :haw:

I was going to something like that. People forget they said .50 caliber, not .50 BMG, like how people think a Desert Eagle has the same power as a .50 Browning Machinegun.
AR-15 are .223 rifles, .223 is the civilian version of the 5.56mm(higher pressure), as with the AR-15 (which can be or not mil spec for chamber pressure to fire 5.56; if not, it can explode the chamber :v: ) is a version of the M16 family without burst/auto mode for civilian markets. The Upper (where the bolt carrier and such) can be easily changed for different ammunition, it's also why it's such a popular rifle.
One of the reason to get it is, AR-15 can be easily changed to .22lr upper for cheap plinkering and back to .223 or .308 for hunting.
