Email to a Friend Printer Friendly Version  

WASHINGTON The F-B-I has tracked down a man who aroused suspicions at a flight school in Georgia.

An official says the man was taking lessons at an airport outside Atlanta, and reportedly became hostile. The airport is the same one where two of the Nine-Eleven hijackers briefly trained.

The F-B-I official says the man has been located in Britain, where he's a citizen. The official says the man was born in Nigeria, and was believed to have been in the U-S illegally.

The F-B-I's Atlanta office says the man is "a person of interest," but doesn't explain why. He is not in custody in Britain.
