A U.S. citizen from Pakistan accused of driving a bomb-laden vehicle into Times Square was to appear in court Tuesday to face charges over the failed attempt to set off a massive fireball and kill Americans, federal authorities say.
Faisal Shahzad was taken into custody late Monday by FBI agents and New York Police Department detectives while trying to leave the country, according to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and other officials.
Shahzad was identified by customs agents at John F. Kennedy International Airport and was stopped before boarding a flight to Dubai, Holder said early Tuesday in Washington.

FBI agents searched the home at a known address for Shahzad in Bridgeport, Conn., early Tuesday, said agent Kimberly Mertz, who wouldn't answer questions about the search.
