Iran hunts three terrorists in U S colonels killings
Iran says it knows the identities of three Marxist guerrillas who killed two U S air force colonels near Tehran. Police identified the attackers who stopped the car and shot Col. Paul R. Shaffer and Lt. Col. Jack J. Turner, both 45, as they headed to a military base. The Shah extended sympathy to the families as a terrorist group claimed retaliation for nine imprisoned revolutionaries killed earlier. The State Department condemned the act.
