Agca moved to Rome prison as pope improves

Mehmet Ali Agca was transferred from Rome police headquarters to a prison outside the city. Meanwhile Pope John Paul II showed noticeable improvement in the last 24 hours, eating soft foods and taking steps, though doctors keep a guarded prognosis. Agea appeared exhausted and unshaven, saying I am sorry in English and Turkish, as he was driven to Rebibbia Prison. Other victims, Ann Odre and Rose Hall, showed varying conditions with Odre feverish and Hall set for weekend release. Police question whether Agca acted alone while noting his claims of targeting other leaders seem designed to confuse investigators.
