Virginia to adopt new crime reporting system in 1990
Virginia will switch to the National Incident Based Reporting System on January 1, reporting 46 crime categories and detailing up to 53 facts per incident. The change will raise apparent crime rates but provide richer data for investigators and crime prevention, per police officials. About 200 local departments must convert by the deadline.

Balloonists abort round-the-world balloon voyage off Hawaii
A three-strong crew led by Richard Branson Steve Fossett and Per Lindstrand abandoned their nonstop round-the-world balloon attempt seven days in after losing favorable winds. Coast Guard helicopters rescued them from shark-infested waters near Honolulu in good condition. The craft, a 272-foot balloon, hit the Pacific after a failed ballast release due to frozen bolts.
