| Feds sorting through 150,000 leads |
| 2001-09-23 |
Federal agents were painstakingly working their way through nearly 150,000 leads generated by the investigation of last week's suicide attacks on New York and Washington, nearly half submitted to an FBI Internet Web site, the FBI said on Saturday. Nearly two weeks after hijacked airliners crashed into the Pentagon, the World Trade Center and a Pennsylvania field, leaving more than 6,800 dead or missing, FBI agents were working virtually around the clock to piece together a conspiracy that has pushed the country to the brink of war. ``We are making headway. Now whether or not it's coming together and forming a bigger picture, I don't know,'' said an FBI special agent in a field office involved in the probe. |
