Daily News… AUSTRALIA SEARCHES OCEAN SITE FOR POSSIBLE PLANE DEBRIS Surveillance aircraft scoured a remote and stormy section of the Indian Ocean on Thursday for a pair of floating objects that Australia and Malaysia guardedly called a «credible» lead in the 12-day-old hunt for a missing passenger jet. Australia said the objects -- one was estimated at 24 metres (79 feet) across -- were captured in satellite imagery, raising hopes of a breakthrough in the Malaysian plane’s mysterious disappearance as relatives of the 239 people aboard braced for another emotional roller-coaster. «We now have a credible lead,» Transport Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said during Malaysia’s daily briefing on the crisis. «There remains much work to be done to deploy the assets. This work will continue overnight.» Four search aircraft were dispatched from Australia -- which has taken charge of the search in the southern Indian Ocean -- to the area about 2,500 kilometres (1,553 miles) southwest of Perth where the grainy images were snapped. The planes -- two from Australia, one from New Zealand and one US aircraft -- covered an area of 23,000 sq km (9,200 sq miles) without any sighting before the search was suspended for the day, said the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA). It earlier reported cloudy, rainy conditions and limited visibility. A Norwegian merchant ship reached the site as daylight waned, and another merchant ship was en route. The Australian navy’s HMAS Success was also headed for the area, and Britain sent a naval survey ship, HMS Echo. Clearly wary of raising hopes following a series of past false leads, Hishammuddin warned of delays in verifying the apparent debris. The Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777, carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew, vanished in the early hours of March 8 after veering drastically off course over the South China Sea while en route to Beijing.

International News… US TEEN DAREDEVIL A teenager evaded security in the middle of the night and managed to climb to the top of the new World Trade Center tower in New York, authorities said Thursday. The 16-yearold was arrested Sunday at 6:00 am and charged with misdemeanor criminal trespass, said Joe Pentagelo, a spokesman for the Port Authority, which owns the World Trade Center. The teen, whose name has not been made public, said he climbed through a gap in the fence around the construction zone at One World Trade Center and then climbed a scaffolding to the sixth floor.
