Abu Yahya Azam, a close associate of Usama bin Laden, was arrested in Karachi Sunday and was taken into custody, Fox News confirms.
Azam is believed to be Egyptian-American.
Initial reports earlier Sunday indicated Adam Gadahn, the American-born spokesman for Al Qaeda was arrested. Those reports seem to be incorrect.
Additional information about Azam was not immediately available.

Apparently this story has been retracted. An American with a very similar alias has been taken into custody, but it's not Gaddahn.
