Book-Related News: The notorious plane hijacker D.B. Cooper may have been from Pittsburgh?
Popular Mechanics is reporting that the infamous plane hijacker, D.B. Cooper, may have been from the Pittsburgh area. Eric Ulis traced pieces of material found on the tie Cooper left behind on the plane back to the Crucible Steel Company. Ulis believes that a Pittsburgh-based engineer who died in 2002 is a strong suspect in the decades-old mystery.
