Default Bomb scare on delta @ LAX

Just heard on the 10am news about a guy on a delta flight who just before the plane landed in Atlanta was yelling out he had a bomb and ran up towards the cockpit..

From news.com.au
A PLANE passenger who shouted that he had a bomb has been overpowered by fellow travellers.
The man was then arrested after the aircraft touched down in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles International Airport spokesman Albert Rodriguez said the passenger shouted: "I have bomb!" just as the Delta aircraft was arriving from Atlanta, Georgia.

Some witnesses said the man had attempted to run though the aircraft before being tackled by passengers.

Gotta give praise to the pax with the guts to tackle the guy, something Americans are good at apart from other things is being heroes.
