Conviction in Hijacking

NYTimes.com: "A man accused of hijacking a Canadian jetliner while it sat on the airport tarmac at Montego Bay was convicted Thursday of charges including robbery and assault, officials in Kingston, Jamaica, said. Sentencing of the man, Stephen Fray, 21, was set for Oct. 8. On April 19, Mr. Fray pushed his way into a CanJet Airlines plane with 167 passengers aboard, firing a revolver into the air, took money from passengers and demanded to be flown off the island. The police captured him after a six-hour standoff. Mr. Fray’s motive remains unclear; Jamaican authorities have described him as “mentally challenged.”"
