Page five of an FBI teletype from the LA field office (case 164-497) relaying a tip to the New Haven office. An informant reported to the FBI on December 2 that on November 28 someone saw the artist's sketch of the hijacker on TV and recognized a resemblance to a known individual. The source stated no reason to believe the person was actually the hijacker, and provided a physical description: white male adult, six foot one, 155 pounds, eyes unknown, slight build, with ears noticeably protruding from head. Heavy redactions conceal all names and some details under FOIA exemptions b6, b7C, and b7D.
