Suspicions about Harding's role surround a failed plan that predated the Jan. 6 attack in Detroit. Three of the arrested men -- Eckardt; hit man Shane Stant, 22; and getaway driver Derrick Smith, 29 -- have told investigators that during the final days of 1993, they conspired with Gillooly to attack Kerrigan while she trained at the Tony Kent Arena on Cape Cod, Massachusetts. An 11-page affidavit, prepared by the Multnomah County sheriff's office in Oregon and made public last week, states that Eckardt initially claimed that Harding did not know about the plot. But under two days...
After a dramatic five-day pursuit, Russian security forces captured four masked gunmen who kidnapped 11 students, a teacher and a bus driver from their school at Rostov-on-Don. The kidnappers, who collected from the Russian government a ransom of $10 million in U.S. currency, forced two military pilots to fly them in a helicopter to the Caucasus Mountains.

Aziz would not have wanted it different, however, for he had set out that day to be Gaza's Dec. 13 martyr...
...Hispanics for jobs," James Clement, a friend, told the Washington Post. When Ferguson applied at a car wash, said Clement, the manager laughed at him. The next day, Ferguson walked into Turner's Outdoorsman and made a downpayment on a gun. As proof of residency, he used a California driver's license he had received on a previous visit and the Royal Motel address. Fifteen days later his security check was completed, and Ferguson paid the balance. By the end of May, he was back in New York City -- with the Ruger. Ferguson thought that the compensation board was going...
