Suspects charged in World Trade Center heist ill suited for plan
New York three men face charges in a $1 million World Trade Center robbery. Described as small time criminals with drug histories, one had just 20 days jailed for stealing infant formula, another was homeless after his family fled a fire, and the third, a heroin user, had stolen food stamps from a homeless man. Investigators say the plan may have involved others, with guards partially disarmed.

Small time criminals cited in homeless crisis tale
Anthony Coppa, Collins say Reed, an adult offender, faced multiple arrests for drug use. Raised by his grandmother at Bishop Boardman Apartments on Eighth Avenue and Windsor Place, he was evicted after stealing from elderly residents. A former Imperial butcher says job loss worsened his drug habit, though friends note moments of helping others.

Automakers push toward adopting a European side impact standard to ease cross market design while safety groups urge tougher rules that consider larger vehicles such as sport utilities minivans and pickups. They contend existing tests miss real world crashes where cars are hit by heavier vehicles.
