A case of air rage

-

A Chilean man angry over an airline not returning his suitcase made false bomb threats that caused up to 11 commercial flights to take emergency measures in Chile, Argentina and Peru. Police said they arrested Franco Sepulveda Robles, 29, in the northern Chilean city of Antofagast­a after investigat­ors linked his cellphone to the wave of threats that disrupted flights Thursday. Interior Minister Andres Chadwick said Sepulveda could be charged with security law infringeme­nt, which carries a penalty of up to five years in prison.
