The South Jersey man who Yemini officials are calling a terrorist with links to al-Qaeda previously worked at three local nuclear power plants.
Sharif Mobley, 26, is being held in a jail in Yemen after he allegedly killed a police guard and seriously injured another during a shootout at a hospital on Monday.
The Buena, N.J. native has also been accused of taking part in several acts of terrorism, Yemini officials say. He also purportedly has ties to the same branch of al-Qaeda who are suspected of attempting to blow up a U.S. airliner on its way to Detroit on Christmas.

Former high school classmate Roman Castro says Mobley was always fiercely religious and tried to convert high school friends to Islam.

A former neighbor said Mobley moved to Yemen two years ago to study Islam.
Mobley, who was born in the U.S., also worked as a laborer at three Salem County nuclear power plants, power company officials say.
Working for several contractors, Mobley carried supplies and did maintenance work at the plants on Artificial Island in Lower Alloways Creek from 2002 to 2008, PSE&G spokesperson Joe Delmar said.
Mobley also worked at other plants in the area, Delmar said.
