Unemployed dishwasher arrested over plan to attack Soviet UN mission
In New York a 50 year old dishwasher, John Carl Erickson, was arrested by two police officers who found four bottles of benzine tar and wicks in a shopping bag, after they believed he planned to throw Molotov cocktails at the Russian United Nations Mission. The arrest prompted officials to note the patrolman acted with overzealous questioning and that Erickson, intoxicated at the time, apparently did not intend the attack. He was charged with possession of dangerous instruments and sent for a mental examination. The incident occurred as Kosygin was due to arrive for a United Nations debate on the Israel Arab war.
