A fake bomb threat at Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) on Thursday, June 5, 2025, caused a six-hour delay for Spirit Airlines flight 2145 heading to Los Angeles and led to a large security response from the TSA. The situation began after 23-year-old Charles Robinson, who had missed his flight, reportedly called Spirit Airlines and claimed there was a possible bomb threat.
As reported by People, Robinson, who had been told at the gate that he needed to rebook his flight, called Spirit Airlines around 6:25 AM. He said he had information about someone planning to set off a bomb on flight 2145. He described this person, saying they would try to sneak the bomb past TSA checkpoints without being caught. His statement led to an immediate reaction from airport officials.
