Local ABC affiliate was interrupted by ABC News Special Report.

The pilot is in constant contact with the ground and insists the plane is secure. Nonetheless, the flight is being diverted to Moncton, NB, Canada as a precaution.

The pilot may have to blow the breathilizer before making a statement.

It is a bit difficult to sqwak such a code by accident. Transponder training is just not something an airline pilot does in the air.

The pilot says the hijack code is an error

four digit code error. FNC says the code is 7500.

Man, if this guy somehow accidentally managed to squawk 7500, he's in a world of pain when that thing lands. Which is, of course, preferable to an actual hijack.

Can it be sent accidentally?

If it's hijacked would the pilots really be able to direct the flight to a certain destination?

Virgin Air (per CNN and Fox) say it's a false alarm. Homeland Security (per Fox) confirms hijack.
