Man threatened to bomb L.A.-bound jet (passengers kick butt)
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Kentucky man who claimed to have a bomb aboard a Los Angeles-bound jetliner and was then tackled and bound by other passengers will not face federal charges, the FBI said Wednesday.
No bomb was found aboard the Delta Air Lines Flight 110 from Atlanta, and after questioning by the FBI and airport police, federal investigators had decided not to pursue charges against Lawrence Johnson, 45, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said.
She said investigators concluded he should undergo a psychological evaluation.
