Reward offered for data aiding skyjacker capture
Hunters have been alerted to be on the lookout for game that's bigger than deer or elk—like money.
Still pressing the search for skyjacker "D.B. Cooper," the FBI has announced that the president of Northwest Orient Airlines, Donald W. Nyrop, has authorized a reward of $25,000 to the finder of evidence of the missing skyjacker, or 15 per cent of the $200,000 ransom money the skyjacker is believed to have parachuted with on Nov. 24, 1971.
"D.B. Cooper" was the name used by a man who hijacked a Northwest Airlines jet last Thanksgiving Eve, got $200,000 and four parachutes from the airline, and then apparently bailed out of the plane between Seattle and Reno, Nev.
The FBI has indicated the belief that the man parachuted in the area north of the North Fork Lewis River and south of the Kalama River.
J. E. Milnes, special agent in charge of the FBI at Seattle, has specifically advised travelers, hunters and others in the forested area northeast of Woodland to watch for the remains of a man, possibly dead for about a year. Other wanted evidence is remnants of a parachute, harness or parachute shroud lines; a deteriorated raincoat or overcoat; and a small briefcase or attache case.
The money consisted of 10,000 twenty-dollar bills wrapped in a parachute canopy. All serial numbers are known and can be identified.
Persons discovering evidence of the skyjacker are requested to call the FBI in Seattle collect. The number is code 206, MA 2-0460.
