Moro kidnapping hoax and shooting shake Rome politics

A Rome newspaper received a hoax call claiming Aldo Moro was freed near Via Pontina after 41 days in captivity, prompting police to search the area. In Rome another anonymous call blamed Red Brigades for an attacker shooting Christian Democratic leader Gerolamo Mechelli. Mechelli’s injuries were minor. Police named seven to nine suspects tied to the Red Brigades in Moro’s abduction, while a separate Morganton court case involves Naomi Mildred Anderson charging Keith Spurling with biting a boa constrictor’s tail.
