The Kid Who Found D.B. Cooper's Ransom - Who would have thought the kid that found part of D.B. Cooper's ransom money lives in Mena, Arkansas?

CNN.com
ran an AP wire story associated with America's only unsolved plane hijacking. Brian Ingram, now 36, found $5,800 in tattered $20 bills back in 1980. Ingram was eight years old at the time. On vacation with his family, Ingram found the money near the Columbia River while looking for firewood.

I can't believe the guy that found the money, that money, lives in Arkansas.

Of all places!

This writer was not aware of the D.B. Cooper hijacking until reading about it this week on CNN's website. The FBI had expressed new interest in the case lately.

You learn something all the time.
