Mad Passenger Shot on Plane
We 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.
