Current Events: Terrorist attempts to blow up passenger plane: Detroit


"December 25, 2009 A Northwest Airbus 330 carrying 278 passengers landed safely at Detroit metro around noon on Friday, Dec. 25, 2009 on a flight bound from Amsterdam to Detroit. A senior U.S. counterterror official says a passenger aboard a Delta Air Lines flight in Detroit was planning to blow up the plane but the explosive device failed."


"One by one, the passengers deplaned Friday with similar and various bits of the story. By all accounts, the suspect was immediately tackled by at least one man, and several other passengers ran towards him immediately trying to put the fire out."
