An 18-year-old man walking his dog on Thursday found a black bag that authorities believe may belong to the suspect in the shooting of Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.

Authorities have been on the hunt for a bag that Jared Loughner is believed to have hidden hours before Saturday's Tucson-area shooting spree that killed six people and injured 13, including Giffords.

"We have found a black bag and are checking to see if it is associated with our case," Pima county Sheriff's Department spokesman Jason Ogan said.

The Associated Press reports that ammunition and drug store purchases were inside but Ogan could not confirm the bag's contents.

The discovery was made in the neighborhood where Loughner and his parents live, deputies said. Loughner, 22, has been identified as the lone suspect in the massacre; he remains in federal custody

In addition, investigators believe Loughner spent the night at a Motel 6 the evening before the shooting, Nanos said.

Authorities would not say how they discovered that information, but say they recovered a credit card from Loughner after the shooting.

At 2:33 a.m. Saturday, Loughner visited a convenience store less than a mile from his house, CBS News reports. Alone, he bought a doughnut, a soft drink and several energy bars. He did not buy alcohol.

Surveillance video of Loughner at the Catalina Mart has been given to the FBI, which wanted the video to see if he had any accomplices, CBS News reports. The FBI scanned Loughner's credit card purchases to track his whereabouts before the shooting.

The morning of the shooting, Loughner went to two WalMart stores to buy ammunition. He left the first store because the clerk was too slow. He bought the ammo at the second store.

Either right before or right after buying the ammo, Loughner was pulled over for running a red light and released, in the earlier described incident.

Still I don't get why he drove home to get a bag out of the same car, he was observed in at 7.30 in the morning and leave by foot, if he did nothing else it makes no sense. Did he really care about leaving the oldtimer at home ?
