telephone! I was interviewed at his residence and
voluntarily provided the following information:

HANSON received a telephone call at his residence from

his son, PETER BURTON HANSON, Date of Birth: 01/24/1969, Place of
Birth: Bridgeport, CT. sometime before 9:00 A.M. this morning. His
son indicated that the plane on which he was presently a passenger
was being hijacked. LEE HANSON asked whether his son was joking
but he knew from the serious tone in his voice that he wasn't.
PETER HANSON repeated that his plane was being hijacked Indicating
"I think they've taken over the cockpit...an attendant has been
stabbed...and someone else up front may have been killed. The
plane is making strange moves. Call United Airtines,..Tell them
it's Flight 175, Boston to LA."

LEE HANSON noted that his son was talking in a low tone,
but not whispering. He believed his son was calling from his
cellular telephone, which number he provided as 617 921-1006.

LEE HANSON immediately phoned the Easton Police

Department and spoke with Captain James Candee. He told Captain
Candee about the substance of the call and asked for any assistance
Candee could provide.

Within a matter of minutes, LEE HANSON received a second

telephone call from his son. He recalled his son saying the
following: "It's getting bad, Dad...A stewardess was stabbed—they
seem to have knives and mace...They said they have a bomb...It's
getting very bad on the plane...passengers are throwing up and
getting sick...the plane is making jerky movements...! don't think
the pilot is flying the plane...I think we're going down...l think
they intend to go to Chicago or someplace and fly Into a building."

LEE HANSON said he heard noise of a woman screaming in

the background.

PETER HANSON continued, "Don't worry, Dad...if it happens

it'll be very fast"

LEE HANSON said the call ended with his son saying "My
God, my God..."

LEE HANSON could not say why the call ended abruptly. He
did not know whether his son had hung up or whether the phone
malfunctioned. He said he resisted the temptation to call his son
right back because he did not want to place him in any more serious
danger by having his cell phone ring on the plane.

PETER HANSON gave no additional information as to the

identity, nationality, physical description, accents, etc. of the
highjackers.

LEE HANSON took two sheets of notes during the two phone
calls and he provided these notes to interviewing agents.

information or background noise from the telephone calls other than
the aforementioned sound of an unidentified woman screaming.

THOMAS EDWARD MURAWSKI. White male, bornf

, was
interviewed by the undersigned pursuant to Rapid Start Lead BA
1484. After being advised of the identity of the interviewing
agents and the nature of the interview, he provided the following
information:

MURAWSKI said he read a Baltimore Sun article about box

cutters being utilized by the highjackers of the four aircraft on
September 11, 2001. He recalled approximately two weeks prior to
the terrorist attacks, that three middle eastern men came to his
store asking to purchase box cutters. He described the men as all
being short and approximately the same height, each having a medium
build. He said one of the men had large curls in his hair. Only
one of the men spoke, and MURAWSKI said this person was slightly
shorter than the others. One of the men who did not speak wore a
camouflage military-type jacket. MURAWSKI said he thought this was
unusual as it was warm outside. The one man who spoke asked for
metal box cutters but was advised that the store had none in stock.
MURAWSKI showed the men plastic box cutters, specifically Tuff Hand
Tools plastic knife cutter set. He said the men did not seem
interested. MURAWSKI said he would check in the back of the store
for other plastic box cutters or tools, but the men seem agitated
that there were not any metal box cutters in stock. MURAWSKI said
he was not sure if the men purchased anything. He said that he did
not have any indication that anyone came back to the store to
purchase metal box cutters. MURAWSKI believed the men came to the
store on Monday, August 27, or Tuesday, August 28, 2001.

MURAWSKI said that there had been six packs of the above-
mentioned plastic box cutters when the three men came in the store.
On the week of September 2, 2001, he noticed that all the packs
were gone from the shelf. He found one package containing six
knives that had been opened and three knives, two small and one
large, were missing. MURAWSKI noted that his store receives new

on Mondays, which is when he found the open package of knives.
MURAWSKI was shown the photographs provided by the
undersigned and he said he recognized photograph number five, AHMED
ALHAZNAWI, as one of the men who came in attempting to purchase box
cutters. He also recognized photographs number two, MOHAMED ATTA.
and three, SALEM AL HAZMI, as being familiar, but was unable to
provide any further information. MURAWSKI said photograph "C", FNU
LNU, was familiar, but the individual he thought he recognized did
not have a moustache. He said he may have seen the male in the
plaid shirt from photograph six, MAJED MOQED, at a gas station,
approximately one month ago, across the street from the mall, but
he was not sure. MURAWSKI was shown the second group of
photographs, but did not recognize any of the individuals.

MURAWSKI said that there are two European-type women who

come into the store regularly on either Thursday, Friday, or
Saturday nights. These women wear Muslim clothing. He said that
these women did not come to the store this past weekend. This
seemed unusual to him.

MURAWSKI said his store only accepts cash and checks, He

provided the undersigned a list of people who worked at the store
the week of August 26, 2001. The following are the names of the
individuals:

MURAWSKI said his store is the smallest in the chain of

Dollar Tree's. He provided a list of other dollar tree stores in
Maryland, highlighting the stores closest to the mall.

explaining, that they needed a Leatherman tool where the Knife
blade would extend even when the tool was closed. He advised that
he told them a number of times that this WALMART store pnly stocked
what was in the display case and none of the Leatherman/tools would
extend a knife blade in the closed position. /

purchased one of the Leatherman knife/tools or not, nor/can he
recall the sale on September 9, 2001 at 6:31 p.m. DAIL€Y reviewed
