THE LEAD STORY: Investigators are looking into the alleged ISIS ties of the suspect in a New York City terror attack that left eight people dead and 11 injured ... The suspect, 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov, is accused of plowing a pickup truck into a crowd in New York City. He is not a U.S. citizen and is originally from Uzbekistan. Saipov shouted "Allahu akbar" ("God is great") after the crash and had handwritten notes written in Arabic pledging his loyalty to the Islamic State terror network, law enforcement officials told Fox News. In addition, the New York Post reported that investigators found "an image of the ISIS flag inside his vehicle." Saipov, who was shot by police, was in custody and remained hospitalized. TRUMP CALLS FOR STRONGER 'EXTREME VETTING': Following Tuesday's terror attack in New York City, President Trump ordered the Department of Homeland Security to "step up" the nation's "extreme vetting program" … "Being politically correct is fine, but not for this!" the president tweeted. The suspect in the attack, Sayfullo Saipov, is originally from Uzbekistan. He came to the U.S. in 2010, and, according to the Associated Press, has a Florida driver's license but was said to be living in New Jersey. He drove a car for Uber and the company told Fox News he had passed a background check. TERROR IN OVERDRIVE: Vehicle attacks like the one in New York City on Tuesday have been all-too-common in Europe ... At least nine vehicle terror attacks have struck Europe since April 2016, and ISIS has claimed responsibility for many of them. The New York attack had "all the hallmarks" of ISIS, Rep. Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, told "Special Report". MANAFORT A FLIGHT RISK?: One day after pleading not guilty to a 12-count indictment, Paul Manafort was described as a major flight risk by prosecutors because of his wealth and foreign connections ... According to unsealed court documents, prosecutors say they believe Manafort -- a former chairman of Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign -- and his business associate Richard Gates were at risk of fleeing. Both were placed under house arrest. Manafort is known to have a significant amount of wealth. Between 2012 and 2016, he listed his assets to be between $19 million and $136 million, the New York Daily News reported. DOSSIER DOCUMENTS ON DISPLAY: Congressional investigators got a behind-closed-doors look Tuesday at classified documents linked to the controversial anti-Trump dossier, Fox News has learned ... Members of the House Intelligence Committee are seeking to learn how much, if at all, federal law enforcement officials have relied on the dossier since it was compiled by the research firm Fusion GPS, with funding from the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, in mid-2016. The documents were presented for inspection pursuant to a subpoena issued by the committee's chairman, Rep. Devin Nunes.
