Fox now saying "no explosives" Or maybe I am getting the breaking news emails late.fox news now said it was a shoe bomb ( per abc ) / a diplomat from qatar embassy
The young man on the right is the smart alec Diplomat talking about shoe bombs in flight.
According to ABC News, the man was identified by authorities as Mohammed al Modadi, a diplomat in the Qatar embassy in Washington. The FBI said the man had full diplomat immunity as the 3rd secretary and vice-consul.
ABC News reported that no explosives have been found on the airplane.A law enforcement official told the Associated Press, the incident appears to have been a misunderstanding after the man was confronted trying to sneak a smoke in the bathroom.
