By Daily Mail Reporter

A 29-year-old celebrating his birthday was the victim of a bomb hoax which forced the airplane he was traveling on to make a u-turn mid-air on Thursday, police said.

An anonymous caller tipped off police that Christopher Shell was carrying explosives on board the US Airways Philadelphia-Dallas flight in what is believed to have been a bad-taste birthday joke.公仔箱論壇5 A( X& z; B8 j; ^6 @

Shell was led from the jet wearing handcuffs after the craft made its emergency return to Philadelphia International Airport on Thursday morning.

He was put him in the back of a police car and taken off for questioning, apparently very surprised to be caught up in the midst of the emergency.* I( f; S& I5 J

'He was obviously very alarmed, as I would be if heavily armed police officers entered a plane to take me off,' Philadelphia police Chief Inspector Joseph Sullivan said.

Sullivan stressed that Shell is not a suspect but added that police are treating the hoax seriously because it had resulted in a heavy police response and a significant hassle for all those on board, he said.

Earlier, an FBI spokesman said the flight was diverted because of a call reporting liquid explosives were on board. Sullivan declined to discuss the content of the call.
The airplane had 69 passengers and five crew members on board, airport spokeswoman Victoria Lupica said.

警方搜不出有任何可疑物品。美聯社

全美航空公司（US Airways）一架原定由費城飛往德州達拉斯的客機，周四起飛後不久接到匿名炸彈恐嚇。機師奉命把飛機折返費城國際機場緊急降落，警方人員登機搜索及帶走一名被指藏有炸彈的男子問話，其後證實整件事只是一宗惡作劇。該名男子原本要趕返德州與家人及好友開派對慶祝29歲生日，豈料遭人「大整蠱」。警方事後扣留一男一女問話，其中女疑犯是受害人的前女友，懷疑她藉此向前男友報復。

　　發生這宗事故的是全美航空公司第1267號班機，於美國東岸時間周五清晨載著69名乘客和5名機員從費城起飛。大約半小時後，警方於早上7時半左右接到一個匿名電話，對方說出機上其中一名男乘客的名字，指他帶了危險品上機。

　　當局大為緊張，馬上查閱乘客名單，果然發現該班機上有這名乘客，於是通知機師把飛機折返費城降落。7 v) F9 B% H+ d* q K* P/ |8 Y$ N: m
