Two detained at Abu Dhabi airport
Two men were taken into custody by onboard security officers Sunday when they announced they had a bomb on a Royal Jordanian Airlines flight heading to Abu Dhabi from Amman, airline and airport officials told CNN. A subsequent search of the two men -- whom officials described as Libyan nationals -- found no bomb, officials said. The suspects, one of whom is in his 20s and one who's in his 30s, had told a flight attendant they were going to blow up the plane, the officials reported. There were 152 passengers on the plane, 12 crew members and four security officers.
