Delta Passenger Subdued After Claiming to Have Bomb

A normal trip to the West Coast from Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport proved anything but Wednesday afternoon.

A Delta Air Lines passenger, who stated he was carrying a bomb and refused to cooperate with flight attendants, was subdued by fellow passengers.

The male passenger, who reportedly lunged for the emergency exit door, was taken down by at least a half dozen passengers on the Flight #110 from Atlanta to Los Angeles shortly after 1 p.m. EST. as the flight was close to landing at LAX.

The flight, carrying some 250 passengers, landed safely in Los Angeles.
