1969, CROTON'S ALLEN FUNT ON PLANE HIJACKED TO CUBA!

Welcome to EverythingCroton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Well there I was--all set to put up a 1953 article on Allen Funt-"-Known to More People Than Any Other Crotonite", courtesy of The Croton Historical Society, when a resident sent this incredible article on Funt from 1969. Apparently he and his children had been on a plane that was hijacked to Cuba! Click on the images below to read both articles.

    That must have been something. I would have been terrified.

    I wonder whatever happened to the hijacker and why anyone on earth would have wanted to go to Cuba back then or even now.
