Woman's body found in search for D.B. Cooper
By ED GROSSWILER Associated Press Writer
WOODLAND, Wash. (AP) — Authorities attempted Thursday to identify the body of a young woman found in the area of an intensive search for D. B. Cooper, the man believed to have parachuted from a hijacked jetliner with $200,000 ransom four months ago.
The woman's body was found Wednesday afternoon by a woman who was looking for old bottles at the historic Grist Mill northeast of Woodland. Clark County Sheriff Eugene Cotten said the body was found at the base of a silo inside the mill. An autopsy was performed Wednesday night and fingerprints taken to aid identification.
Cotten would not speculate on the cause of death. The body was partially disrobed when discovered.
No reports
The sheriff said he had no reports of missing persons whose description would match the body.
The Grist Mill is near where the body of Cynthia Glass, 25, a Portland grocery clerk was found several weeks ago. She had been abducted from the store where she worked and shot to death. Portland police have been working with authorities in Texas, Colorado and Utah where similar slayings of store clerks have taken place in the past six months.
The discovery of the body [illegible]-
tracted the FBI until it was determined the body was that of a woman.
The FBI, assisted by Army troops and helicopters, has been conducting a renewed search for the hijacker.
The man known as Cooper took over a Portland-Seattle Northwest Airlines jet last November. After ordering it to land in Seattle he demanded $200,000 and four parachutes. He ordered the plane to fly to Reno, Nev. but when it arrived the man, money and two parachutes were missing. Authorities theorize he parachuted over southwest Washington.
