Stupid Remarks at the Airport = Police Involvement

Saying something like this can get you arrested:

"What if there was a bomb in my bag?"

That's exactly what 68-year-old Mahmoud Abouelleil said, and he did get arrested. Apparently his bag was loaded onto a plane bound for Minneapolis from Bradley International Airport in Hartford. He was most likely upset, as he had missed the boarding call and the plane was on its way up the runway for takeoff. They had to turn it around and search the plane.

Abouelleil was arrested, charged with falsely reporting an incident, and allowed out on $1,000 bail.

File this under DUH!
