Just a reminder that we all need to be watchful and that we are still at war...and a reminder that we still need to follow through on recommendations on improving our ability to counter terrorism.

3 at Sears Tower raise suspicions

CHICAGO -- Police and federal investigators are looking into an incident about three weeks ago at the Sears Tower in which three men caught the attention of security guards when they got out of their car and appeared to be studying the 110-story building and taking photographs.

The men were questioned by building security guards but were allowed to leave, authorities said. The guards recorded the car's license plate and it was traced to a rental agency.

The car was returned to the agency about an hour after that, the source said, and investigators from the Joint Terrorism Task Force learned that it had been rented with a fictitious name.

Chicago Police spokeswoman Monique Bond confirmed that the department is working with the task force to investigate but added that she could not discuss the specifics of the incidents.

"We cannot comment at this time because it's part of the ongoing investigation," Bond said.
