1390.0. "Terrorist Attack in New York" by NYOS02::REISCHER () Wed Mar 02 1994 23:24

There was what appears to be a terrorist act here in New York 
yesterday, March 1. A van carrying about 15 Lubabitcher students was 
attacked with automatic weapons as it approached the Brooklyn bridge 
from FDR Drive. A single Lebanese gunman (who has since been 
apprehended) fired three different vollies of bullets into the van 
hitting four boys. Two of the boys were critically injured (one is 
brain dead, R'L) and two others were less seriously injured. 

Apparently, the van had been followed the day before and a plate 
number was taken down. They found the car abandoned and its owner out 
of the country the day of the attack.

Heard on the radio on my way to work this morning, that the alleged
gunman, while claiming to be innocent, has given the police about 50
versions of his story.
