Britons arrested for bomb ‘joke’ in Tenerife

TWO British men were arrested at the Reina Sofia Airport in Tenerife for claiming they had a bomb on the plane.

They were travelling from Manchester on a Thomas Cook flight when they threatened to detonate the bomb.

The police surrounded the plane, evacuated the passengers and arrested the men after learning that the threat was “just a joke” because the youths, who were drunk, had had an argument with the crew.
