Authorities arrested two men, aged 50 and 53, and a 29-year-old woman after finding multiple weapons -- some loaded -- including rifles and handguns in their vehicle, described by a law enforcement source as a "jacked up SUV." Ballistic vests and a camouflage helmet were also found in the vehicle, NBC4 reported.

The Joint Terrorism Task Force is assisting the investigation, though law enforcement sources told Fox News the arrests were not likely related to terror.

"If it's not terrorism, it's criminal," another source told Fox News.

The trio, from Pennsylvania, initially was stopped by Port Authority Police at a toll plaza for a cracked windshield at 7:40 a.m., authorities said. An officer saw the weapons in plain view on the passenger side of the vehicle.

Drugs were also recovered from the vehicle, which has been cleared from the scene but is still being processed for evidence.

The suspects' final destination was unclear. The Holland Tunnel's New York side is located in Lower Manhattan.

Stopped for a cracked windshield? Leads me to believe somebody knew something and the police were just looking for any reason to pull these people over

Two senior law enforcement officials say the three suspects are so-called "gun enthusiasts" and have no nexus to terror. There is no known threat.

If that is heavily armed, the media wouldn't know what to call me if I had my car searched on the way to my hunting land

This used to be called good, proactive policing but is now called profiling.

Are these the weapons that they found? That is hardly "heavily armed" anywhere other than NJ and Cali. Also is that .50 round one of those bottle openers? I cant tell if it is or just a shadow
