After Fairfax County police acknowledged in late June that they had fired the officer who shot and killed unarmed motorist David Masters in 2009, Chief David M. Rohrer said he would apologize to the Masters family. Eventually, Rohrer called Masters’s father, mother, sister and ex-wife and offered each his apologies. He also arranged to have Masters’s truck towed back to Fredericksburg, where Masters’s ex-wife and stepdaughter, the executors of his estate, live.

The arrest comes amid rising concern that Pakistan’s military is penetrated by Islamists who are sympathetic to insurgent groups that have declared war on the state.
