Local and federal law enforcement faced off against two hijackers while managing hostages, media frenzy, and curious onlookers. The incident not only highlighted the chaos of the situation but also involved Jessica Savitch, a future national TV news anchor, who was arrested during the event. This account is enriched by eyewitness testimonies, preserving the vivid memories of a day that marked the town's history.
