| Bomb threats were made in concert with 9-11 attack |
| 2001-09-20 |
False bomb threats were made against air traffic facilities and airliners at the same time that hijacked planes were flying toward New York and Washington last week, and government investigators say they believe it was probably accomplices of the hijackers attempting to confuse air traffic controllers. The controllers refused to leave their posts despite the threats. In Pittsburgh, they moved to a temporary facility to be certain they could keep aircraft moving safely if a bomb exploded or a hijacked plane hit the tower. |
