A man who said he had a bomb while aboard a flight bound for New Orleans has been arrested, authorities say.
The 34-year-old man started acting irrationally late in the evening during the flight and reportedly told crew members that he had a bomb, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office said Tuesday. The man was not identified. The airplane, which departed from Newark, New Jersey, landed safely at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, and the man was arrested without incident.
