He may be bank robber, but he's not D. B. Cooper
PORTLAND — (UPI) — The Federal Bureau of Investigation says it has definitely eliminated any connection between a captured bank-robbery suspect and the elusive skyjacker "D. B. Cooper" who parachuted from an airliner in 1971 with $200,000 in ransom. Julius Mattson, F. B. I. special agent, said yesterday the robbery suspect, Arvidis J. Kiperts, 41, of Vancouver, Wash., was not the man who called himself Cooper in the hijacking of the Northwest Airlines jetliner. The agent said Cooper was described as thin but Kiperts is stocky. He added that witnesses to the hijacking looked at a picture of Kiperts and said he was not Cooper. The F. B. I. said it had conclusive evidence that Kiperts was somewhere else at the time of the plane hijacking. Kiperts was arrested in San Diego Monday night on an Oregon bank-robbery charge and is a suspect in a second bank robbery in Oregon in which the holdup man doodled the name D. B. Cooper on a bank-deposit slip. A man who called himself D. B. Cooper hijacked the plane between Portland and Seattle on Thanksgiving Eve, 1971, and demanded the ransom and four parachutes. He bailed out of the plane between Seattle and Reno and disappeared. Kiperts is being held in lieu of $150,000 bail and is scheduled to appear before a United States magistrate in San Diego November 19.
