From Times Staff and Wire Reports

The bodies of four U.S. oil company employees shot in a highway ambush in Pakistan last week were returned to their families in Houston. Four coffins covered with U.S. flags were unloaded from a chartered jet at Ellington Field, placed in hearses and driven to a private hangar where about 50 relatives were waiting. Funerals for the men--Ephraim Egbu, Joel Enlow, Larry Jennings and Tracy Ritchie--are scheduled for Wednesday. All were auditors for Houston-based Union Texas Petroleum Holdings Inc. and had been in Pakistan on routine company business.
