FBI Storms Hotel in Boston

BOSTON (AP) - A heavily armed FBI (news - web sites) team searching for
suspects in the terrorism attacks in New York and Washington stormed a Boston
hotel Wednesday. In nearby Providence, R.I., a train was searched and one man
was led away in handcuffs.

Guests were ordered to evacuate the 36-story Westin Hotel in the Back Bay
section, according to a guest leaving the hotel who declined to give his
name.

Agents wearing bulletproof vests and carrying shields were seen bringing
fiber-optic equipment into the hotel.

As a large crowd gathered outside, one person was seen taken out of the hotel
and put in a van, but a law enforcement official said said no one connected
to the terror attacks had been arrested.

``SWAT teams were all around holding machine guns,'' said witness R.J. Ryan,
who joined hundreds of other onlookers.

``They put somebody in the van. Then they started moving everybody.''

Meanwhile, other officers converged on the Park Inn at Chestnut Hill in
Newton, a Boston suburb. Newton police officer Russ Adam said the FBI was
conducting an investigation at the hotel.

A law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity said two hotel
rooms in the Boston area believed to have been used in the attacks were
searched. While no arrests were made in connection with the attacks,
searchers did find information with a link to a name on the manifest of one
of the hijacked flights, the source said.

In Providence, R.I., authorities stopped an Amtrak train that had come from
Boston, ordered off passengers, and went on board. WJAR-TV said three people
were taken off the train and questioned. An Associated Press reporter saw a
man taken in handcuffs from the train station at about 3:20 p.m.

Providence Mayor Vincent Cianci Jr. said police told him they were looking
for up to four suspects who had eluded authorities in Boston, some 40 miles
from Providence.

It was not immediately clear that the train sweep was connected to the
terrorist attacks. Two of the planes that were hijacked and crashed Tuesday
had taken off from Boston.

An answering machine at the FBI office said officials would be offering no
comment on the investigation.

Three ambulances and a police car were stationed outside the Westin hotel as
a crowd of onlookers gathered there. WHDH-TV reported that police officers
returned repeatedly to a police truck outside to retrieve fiber-optic
equipment, which can be slipped under doors to see inside rooms.

WHDH reported the officers used the equipment to check under room doors on
the hotel's 16th floor.

The hotel has more than 800 rooms, according to a Web site.
