German tourist arrested for bomb threat at Disney World
Seriously folks, who out there doesn't know by now that it's just not okay to make a bomb threat? It's not okay at the airport, and it's not okay at Disney World either. But still, we have yet another story about someone getting arrested for making a false bomb threat.
A 37-year old German tourist told security that he had two bombs in his backpack as he was passing through security at Walt Disney World in California. Not surprisingly, the security guards detained him and had a bomb-sniffing dog check out his bag. No bombs were found, and the man, who then claimed he was just joking about those bombs, was arrested and taken to the Orange County Jail. Bail was set at $10,000.
According to ABC News, this isn't the first bomb scare at Disney. In September, a mysterious device was found under a bus. Bus service around the resort was suspended, but the device was not found to be explosive.

Disney World is in Florida. Disney Land is in California. Thought you should know.

And actually, it's "Disneyland" - one word, not two. :-)
