Mad Passenger Shot on Plane

planeWe interrupt this regularly scheduled gift guide to bring you some crazy news. A passenger aboard an American Airlines flight (which had not yet taken off) apparently went running up and down the aisles screaming that he had a bomb. His wife was screaming telling people he was mentally ill.

They let him off, and when air marshals told him to get down, he reached into the bag. That's when the marshal shot him dead. The guy was a 44-year-old U.S. citizen. I'm sure more will come out about this, but it seemed too nuts not to mention.
