Re Sacramento airtel to Seattle, 3/9/78.

On 3/9/78, [REDACTED], California, telephone number [REDACTED], was contacted at his residence per his request. [REDACTED] voluntarily provided the following information during that contact:

---

[REDACTED] stated that on the night of captioned hijacking, he and his wife were aware of the hijacking because they were watching TV. [REDACTED] said that while watching TV, they heard a report that the airplane was about to land in Reno, Nevada and that he and his wife heard an aircraft at that time which they believed to be the hijacked aircraft. He continued by stating that they both looked out the window towards the noise and they both observed what they thought was a flare dropping from the plane.

---

[REDACTED] advised that he reported the incident to a deputy from the Lassen County Sheriff's Office the next morning, but that he heard no more about the incident. [REDACTED] said that he thought no more about the incident until the past two or three months. He stated that during the past two or three months, he has observed a yellow Toyota or Datsun pickup in the area where he and his wife observed the flare drop, and in his opinion, the driver of the pickup has been acting strange. He stated that it appears to him the driver has been looking for something.

---

[REDACTED] further advised that on 2/6/78, he located part of what appeared to be a pilot parachute rather than a regular parachute and a green baseball cap which was rolled up in the chute. He said that the chute was located several miles from the area where he and his wife observed the flare drop.
