An arrest had been made in the failed Times Square car bombing, saying that Faisal Shahzad, a 30-year-old Pakistani immigrant, was taken into custody at John F. Kennedy International Airport as he tried to fly to Dubai. Authorities said Shahzad, who lived in Connecticut, had paid cash for a Nissan Pathfinder found with explosives after it was set ablaze but failed to detonate on a tourist-crowded block in midtown Manhattan. Officials located him after a sweeping two-day investigation that yielded what senior Obama administration officials described as a flood of international and domestic clues suggesting a plot involving more than one person.
