on November 24, 1971 a passenger named D. B. Cooper which is the name popularly used to refer to an unidentified man, hijacked a Boeing 727 aircraft alleging that he had explosives strapped to himself he demanded and received $200,000 plus some parachutes in Seattle, he then demanded to be flown to Mexico, somewhere over southwestern Washington, he jumped out the plane's tail exit with two of the chutes, and was never seen or heard from again,
but the FBI today announced that it has a new suspect in the case who they are hoping to link to a tie Cooper left on the plane and cigarette butts in an ashtray using DNA testing and fingerprints, 'We do actually have a new suspect we're looking at,' said FBI spokesperson Ayn Dietrich as she revealed the twist in the investigation 'it comes from a credible lead who came to our attention recently via a law enforcement colleague,' she said, so will the new suspect be named in the FBI's only unsolved hijacking case? we will have to wait and see.
