A passenger wrote a note to a flight attendant threatening to detonate explosives on a Seattle-bound Alaska Airline flight, federal authorities said.
Alaska Airlines Flight 334 was traveling from Atlanta on Wednesday, when Brandon Scott, 38, of Kentucky made the bomb threat, an FBI agent said in charging documents.
Scott is accused of writing a note that said he would detonate homemade explosives in his carry-on bag and “kill everyone on board” if the captain did not divert the plane to another airport, according to the charging documents.
