By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Hijackers holding a jetliner at Tehran airport today killed at least two more passengers, including a man who had identified himself as the U.S. consul in Pakistan and begged for his life, Iran's official media reported. The U.S.
State Department said there were three Americans aboard the plane, but the U.S. consul in Pakistan was not one of them. The official Iranian news agency said the hijackers, who had killed one passenger and wounded an on-board security guard shortly after they commandeered the Kuwait Airways plane Tuesday, today killed two more passengers. There was no confirmed information on the identity of the victims. The five Arabic-speaking hijackers earlier said the passenger killed Tuesday was an 1 American diplomat, but the U.S.
State Department said there was no confirmation of that report. IRNA said the hijackers brought two passengers out of the plane onto the raised platform of the landing steps next to the aircraft door and started counting down to kill them. "One of the passengers requested a loudspeaker and after it was given to him introduced himself in a pleading voice as the U.S. consul in Karachi," IRNA said. The man then pleaded with officials to meet the hijackers' demands, saying they would kill him otherwise.
IRNA said he was then shot six times and killed. A U.S. State Department spokesman in Washington denied that the U.S. consul in Karachi was aboard the hijacked plane. Today's killings reportedly followed demands by the hijackers that the pilot and co-pilot, apparently suffering from exhaustion, be replaced.
Northeast bracing for major snowfall By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The northern Plains shivered in a deep freeze today, with temperatures as low as 14 below zero, while a snowstorm trudged across the Appalachian states and another more powerful storm promised snowpiles up to a foot deep in the Northeast. The combined effects of a supercold Canadian air mass and a storm system that swept across the Texas Panhandle left five motorists dead Wednesday in Ohio, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas and Minnesota. "It's absolutely a winter wonderland going into the Christmas season," said Missouri Highway Patrol Cpl. Jerry Chrismon, who measured snow in Poplar Bluff at inches. "But since we're in another business, it looks bad." re "We could have a terribly hazardous situation if all the slush freezes," said Chrismon.
Arctic winds made it feel as cold as 60 degrees below zero in parts of Minnesota and the Dakotas, and the storms dumped as much as 10 inches of snow on Wednesday in parts of Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Illinois and Oklahoma.
