NEW YORK -- An Air France co-pilot was arrested Friday at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport for allegedly telling a security screener that he had a bomb in his shoe.
The man was arrested at 9:30 p.m. Friday. His flight that was set to leave for Paris at 11 p.m. was canceled. Passengers were flown out on another flight Saturday morning.
The Port Authority police checked the pilot's shoes and there was no bomb.
The plane was also searched.
The pilot now faces charges of false reporting. One of the charges is a felony that carries a maximum prison term of seven years.
**Me personally, i think this is sort of stupid & sort of correct...i dont think the man should go to jail...but i would do something to him after he said he had a bomb...i mean...if i could tell he was just joking around that would be different..but if he had a serious look on his face..i dont really know what i would do..
