Flight from Mauritius to Paris made emergency landing in Mombasa Suspicious device found in the toilet of Air France plane by passenger
Four people have been arrested after a hoax bomb was found in the toilet of an Air France flight from Mauritius to Paris which was forced to divert to Kenya.
The Boeing 777 landed in Mombasa after a passenger reported the suspicious device. A technical examination of the device found it did not contain any explosives.
The flight was carrying 459 passengers and 14 crew members when pilots requested an emergency landing at a Mombasa airport at 9.30pm GMT. However, nearly 20 hours after the emergency landing, Air France have now confirmed that the device was a fake bomb made of cardboard and a timer, possibly designed to start panic.

Were those arrested named moe hammed? Aren’t you racist to think so? Hey, bring them in to America and make them your loving neighbors.
That was my first thought....
My second thought.
Those crazy Amish at it again.
Probably just clock boy’s science project. He just left it in the bathroom. He will end up with a Nobel Prize this time.
Hey...keep that dopey-looking future terrorist off all flights! What a fool.

I wonder if Obama will invite these guys to the White Mosque too.?
[[Four passengers are arrested after fake bomb is discovered in a toilet on Air France flight]]
Are these 4 being invited to the white house?
Gee. No names of the four.
They have electrolytes!
It was just a convenient restroom clock.
I hope Bill Gates sets these clever scientists up for life.
By not taking too much time in the restroom they were being considerate to the other passengers.
Not yet, anyway.
Don't these sorts of devices get pieced together over several flights?
That is proper attire to judge a science fair these days.
