ENLARGE U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson, pictured last week in El Salvador, said terrorism can't be ruled out in the EgyptAir crash. U.S. and foreign intelligence officials have been searching for days for evidence as to whether the crash was terror-related, but so far they have made no breakthroughs. “Clearly something catastrophic occurred in a very short period of time,” Rep. Michael McCaul (R., Texas), who chairs the House Homeland Security Committee, said on Fox News Sunday. “At this point, we cannot rule out some type of terrorist act, but it’s still very early and the black box has not been found yet,” Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said on Fox News Sunday.
