Early indications suggest Flydubai co-pilot acted alone in attack, officials say

Early indications suggest the Flydubai co-pilot accused of attacking his captain and trying to seize control of an Israel-bound plane was a ‘lone wolf’ acting alone, rather than as part of a larger organization or on behalf of a foreign government, multiple U.S. officials briefed on the investigation and a former Israeli security official told NBC News. NBC News’ Raf Sanchez reports.
