Bomb hoax goes very wrong
A journalist running late tried to delay his flight by making a fake bomb threat, but he was caught out.
The German reporter covering the European football championship called from his mobile phone to annonymously say there was a bomb on the flight from the Italian city of Verona to Vienna.
The 27-year-old then showed up late for the Air Dolomiti flight and said he had heard the flight was no longer preparing for take off.
Since no announcement had been made he became the prime suspect. A check of his mobile phone confirmed police suspicions and he was arrested.
The fake threat closed air traffic at the airport for several hours while the bomb squad checked out the airplane.
