Court records show that the suspect in the failed Times Square bombing defaulted on a $200,000 mortgage on his Connecticut home and that the property is in foreclosure.

Records obtained by The Associated Press show that Chase Home Finance LLC sued Faisal Shahzad (FY’-sul shah-ZAHD’) in September to foreclose on the home in Shelton.

Authorities say they arrested Shahzad at New York’s Kennedy Airport on Monday night on a plane about to leave for Dubai.

The foreclosure records show Shahzad took out the mortgage on the property in 2004, and he co-owned the home with a woman named Huma Mian. The foreclosure case is pending in Milford Superior Court.

A message was left Tuesday with an attorney for Chase’s law firm. The records show Shahzad and Mian didn’t have lawyers for the case.
