Standard FBI teletype cover form FD-36 (revised 5-22-64), dated December 29, 1971, marked for transmission in plaintext via teletype at urgent priority. Urgent NORJAK teletype from SAC San Diego to SAC Seattle. References a December 13 (1971) teletype from Los Angeles to San Diego. A redacted suspect has been eliminated as a possible suspect in the instant hijacking (D.B. Cooper case). The suspect is employed somewhere in San Diego County and also has an address in San Diego, California. The suspect viewed a composite drawing of the UNSUB and advised that the depicted individual was unknown to him. An airmail copy was sent to Los Angeles. The UNSUB is noted as armed and dangerous. Administrative footer. One copy to be sent to Los Angeles by airmail. Message drafted by agents TLK/crw; two copies total. Handwritten file reference number .164-91-26 and what appears to be a teletype end-of-message marker ('-30-'). Approved by the Special Agent in Charge (signature illegible). Transmitted at 5:45 PM. U.S. Government Printing Office form stock notation at bottom references 'DB Cooper-76'.

Document is clearly legible overall
