Police confuse Calif. man with hijacker
LOS ANGELES — (AP) — A suburban West Covina man says he was detained by police for three hours be- cause he resembles the Northwest Orient Airlines plane hijacker who para- chuted to freedom after re- ceiving $200,000.
Jiri Fencl, 38, said in an interview yesterday that he was picked up by police at Sacramento Airport four days after the November 24 hijacking in Seattle and questioned and photographed by officers.
Fencl said when he was arrested he had $800 in his wallet which was to pay a moving-van company for transporting his property from Rocklin, near Sacra- mento, to West Covina. He said a card in his wallet indi- cated he had been an Army parachutist, and a check of his driver's license further revealed he had once lived in Seattle.
Fencl is the new manager of the Pomona National Country Club.
