BUTLER COUNTY, Ohio (Rich Jaffe) -- Christopher Cornell was taken into custody outside the Point Blank indoor shooting range and gun shop on Harrison Avenue Wednesday afternoon.
    
Cornell had just purchased two AR 15 semiautomatic weapons and 600 rounds of ammunition.
    
The manager at the shop said Cornell paid $1,900 cash.

When he left the store agents swarmed him and took him into custody without any problems.

On Twitter Cornell posts tweets as Raheel Mahrus Ubaydah.
    
The FBI tracked him for months, using an informant to help capture him.

Cornell is currently being held in the federal detention unit of the Butler County jail.
