No terrorist connection to Alligator Alley

NAPLES, FLORIDA - Florida Governor Jeb Bush says there doesn&#39;t appear to be a terrorist connection in the Alligator Alley situation. <br> <br> Bush says no explosives have been found yet in the two cars being searched on the highway running through the Everglades. <br> <br> The road remains shut down as investigators continue going through the second of the two cars. The first was moved a short distance away after being searched. <br> <br> The two vehicles were stopped early this morning on the highway after one ran through a toll booth. <br> <br> Authorities had been tipped off to look for the cars after a woman in a Georgia restaurant reported overhearing three men talk about a possible terror attack. <br> <br> Technicians have been using bomb-sniffing dogs and a robot in going through the cars. <br> <br> The dogs had initially alerted them to some material in both cars. <br> <br> An official in Washington says the three men who are being detained appear to be medical students on their way to a conference in Miami. <br> <br> He says their nationalities are Jordanian, Pakistani and Iranian. Two of the three are naturalized U.S. citizens.
