Hijackers threaten ferry passengers
Armed hijackers seized a ferry off Cuba’s coast and threatened to toss passengers overboard if they cannot go to the United States, sparking a negotiating drama on the high seas.
The FBI said last night the ferry was drifting in international waters about 60 miles off Key West, Florida, and it had sent hostage negotiators by helicopter to the scene, where they met up with a US Coastguard cutter.
