Narrative:
Air carrier X level FL280. TCASII TA yellow for traffic 5 mi 12 O'clock. We got him visual. He was climbing and passed us at 3 O'clock, 2 mi away and 800 ft above us. We talked to him, about his TCASII alert, told him what we had. Controller said they would pull the tapes. Supplemental information from acn 297302: we received a TA on the TCASII. Target showed up at 12 O'clock position 5 NM co-altitude. Aircraft was air carrier Y 767 and passed within 2 NM to our right at 800 ft above and climbing. We were radar contact with ZSU who seemed unaware of the conflict. Both aircraft sighted each other at 5 NM due to the TCASII alert.
