Michigan man calls in bomb threat to delay his flight to LA (the plan backfires)

When a man in Detroit realized he was running late for his Spirit Airlines flight, he thought he could stall the plane's departure by calling in a bomb threat. And in fact, his plan worked, kind of. "I was calling about flight 2145… because I have information about that flight," 23-year-old John Charles Robinson allegedly told a Spirit Airlines official over his cell phone on Thursday morning, according to Detroit Free Press.
