Hijacking desperadoes target press amid Croatia crisis
Five Croatian terrorists seized a Boeing 727 en route from New York to Chicago near Buffalo, forced a course north, and planned a 2400 word Free Croatia manifesto to be published in major papers. In Montreal and Gander they released passengers and sought a newsprint publication as demands pressed toward surrender or death.
