Ingram said he bought his car from a new car salesman, paid $200 or $300 down, and arranged for financing. He said he notified the finance company when he and his family moved here from Oklahoma last winter.
His arrest Monday was an unhappy surprise, he said.
"I had no idea I had a warrant on me," he said. "That's obvious, or ,I wouldn't be flashing my face all over the world."
He might have been late with a payment or two, he said, "but rich people do that, too, don't they?"

When the aircraft landed at Seattle, Washington, Northwest Orient Airlines complied with his instructions. After he received the parachutes and the money, the hijacker allowed all passengers and two airline stewardesses to deplane.
He then ordered the remaining crew members into the first-class section of the aircraft and informed them he desired to fly to Mexico City. The hijacker instructed that the plane proceed in a southerly direction and fly at a low altitude and slow speed which would enable the rear door of the plane (Boeing 727) to be opened during the flight. :selected: JKM 1 - Knoxville 1- Seattle

After he received the parachutes and the money, the hijacker allowed all passengers and two airline stewardesses to deplane.
He then ordered the remaining crew members into the first-class section of the aircraft and informed them he desired to fly to Mexico City. The hijacker instructed that the plane proceed in a southerly direction and fly at a low altitude and slow speed which would enable the rear door of the plane (Boeing 727) to be opened during the flight.

The hijacker apparently bailed out somewhere between Seattle, Washington, and Reno, Nevada, where the plane landed to refuel. It was determined the hijacker, two parachutes, and the ransom money had disappeared when the plane was inspected at Reno, Nevada.
Artist conception drawings of the aircraft hijacker were prepared by the FBI Exhibit Section and are considered a reasonable likeness. The black and white composites were prepared initially and sometime later the color composites were prepared toi epict the hijacker's complexion and age more graphically.

If you will make these fingerprints available to this agency, they will be for- warded to our Identification Division where they will be compared with latent impressions that were located on the skyjacked air- craft. In the event the Identification Division is unable to identify the fingerprints you submit as identical with the latent impressions from the aircraft, you will be advised by letter, within five business days of completion of the examination. This letter will be sent to you by registered mail, at the above address A copy will also be sent to your attorney,

If an identification is not made it may be because your fingerprints and the latent impressions are not from the same individual or because the fingerprints you submit or impres- sions from the aircraft are from different portions of the same hands and therefore are not comparable.

over; Southwest Washington with $200,000 after hijacking a Seattle-bound Northwest Airlines plane Nov. 24, 1971. ,
Ingram's son, Brian, unearthed several thousand dol- lars of the ransom money Feb. 10, as he dug a fire pit in the sand along the banks of the Columbia River down- stream from Vancouver.
The next day, Ingram turned the money over to the FBI, which announced the find with great fanfare at a press conference featuring the Ingram family.
"Several of us read the paper and recognized bim," Roberts told The Associated Press. "We had a warrant sworn out to have him brought back."
Ingram's arrest is the latest in a string .of reversals that have followed his family's brief glow in the lime- light.
Two weeks after the money was discovered, Ingram's : wife, Patricia, reported that her husband was forced to @ give up 1'2 days of pay - about $100 - in order to
return the money and attend the FBI's press conference.
"We live from paycheck to paycheck, and we could, sure use that $100," she told The Post-Intelligencer at the time.

Ingram told The P-I that recovery of the skyjack loot also resulted in family strife that arose when a relative tried to take credit for finding the money.
Late Saturday night, about 35 hours before Ingram was arrested, a fire broke out in an upstairs bedroom of the Ingram home and caused $1,000 damage before : Vancouver firefighters could put it out.
Vancouver Fire Marsbal Gordon Gage said the blaze was caused by a short in an extension cord.
. And as of yesterday, Ingram had missed three days of · work this week at the U-Cart Concrete Manufacturing Co. in Vancouver.
"We're trying to reach him, because we really want to help him," U-Cart owner Joe Tanner said yesterday. Tanner said his firm intends to advance Ingram the money "to get this thing in Oklahoma squared away.
"We think he's getting a bum rap," Tanner said.
"I'm from Texas, and I've got a little knowlege about these Southern redneck laws that let a D.A. help busi-a nessmen collect their debts," he said.
"I've been told be (Ingram) has been making pay-, i ments on this car loan, and he's only a couple of payments behind," Tanner said.

Additionally, in the same file, a Seattle Post Intelligencer article written by Dick Clever, appearing on 11/23/72, in the final edition, at page A19, there appears an article penned by Clever and copyrighted story, the copyright is held by the Seattle Post Intelligencer, dated 1972, entitled "A Ballad to the Man Called D. B. ".
That story and the words in their entirety are: "He was cool, he was calm, the man with the "bomb", who boarded flight 36 with ease. And pilot Bill Scott, not suspecting the plot, took off with the man called D. B. They were just in the air, when the stew caught the stare, of the man in the back of the plane. He passed her a paper, which he thought she'd read later, she thought him a flirt and quite vain. "Read the note," his wave told, and she thought him quite bold, to make such a pass in mid flight. But she did as he asked, and she read and she gasped, as the jet flew on into the night. The crew was quite shocked, to find this short hop, this all stop, short hop flight skyjacked.

Since last month Ingram has:
Lost 1/2 days pay - about $100 -- in order to return the money and attend an FBI press conference.
Watched as a fire caused about $1,000 damage to the upper floor of his home at 1500 Markle St. Saturday:
Been arrested Monday on an Oklahoma warrant alleging he left that state unlawfully
with mortgaged property - a car.
Officials in Oklahoma said they recognized Ingram from newspaper photographs that appeared after the famous find. Ingram had been wanted for about six months before the story first appeared in the paper, they said.
The warrant was issued because Ingram allegedly is behind in payments for his car.
"I have every receipt," Ingram said Thursday. "I' don't have a payment due on. that car until the 20th of next month."
"I feel confused, really confused," Ingram said Thursday. "And I feel pretty unlucky. I'm not angry; I'm kind of hurt. I really care what people think about me."
Ingram said he bought his car from a new car salesman, paid $200 or $300 down, and arranged for financing.

The hijacker demanded $200,000 and four parachutes in exchange for the safety of the 36 passengers aboard the plane. When the aircraft landed at Seattle, Washington, Northwest Orient Airlines complied with his instructions. After he received the parachutes and the money, the hijacker allowed all passengers and two airline stewardesses to deplane.
He then ordered the remaining crew members into the first-class section of the aircraft and informed them he desired to fly to Mexico City. The hijacker instructed that the plane proceed in a southerly direction and fly at a low altitude and slow speed which would enable the rear door of the plane (Boeing 727) to be opened during the flight.

Paragraph four of the agreement provides that the Bureau will give the opportunity to interview the subject prior to granting interviews to other media representatives. It has been explained to that the FBI has no authority to grant or deny interviews of suspects to any news media representatives. He was advised that when a subject is arrested, he is turned over to the custody of the U. S. Marshal and any interviews of the subject will then depend on the local ground rules set forth by the U.S. Marshal as well as by the desires of the subject. He was advised that the FBI's obligation is to insure that a person, upon arrest, appears before the U. S. Magistrate and that following this the subject will be in the custody of the U. S. Marshal, if in custody. :unselected: advised that he did not anticipate that the interview with the subject would be a problem inasmuch as he and his company would retain a lawyer for the subject if he is arrested and therefore arrangements would be made for interview through that attorney.

THE CRIME
On November 24, 1971, a lone white male boarded Northwest Orient Flight #305 at Portland, Oregon. At approximately 3:22 P.M., while the flight was en route to Seattle, Washington, he indicated to the stewardess that his brief case contained a bomb which would blow up the plane unless his demands were met.
The hijacker demanded $200,000 and four parachutes in exchange for the safety of the 36 passengers aboard the plane. When the aircraft landed at Seattle, Washington, Northwest Orient Airlines complied with his instructions. After he received the parachutes and the money, the hijacker allowed all passengers and two airline stewardesses to deplane.
