Two Juveniles Detained in Mid-Air Explosive Threat in Alexandria
You would have to imagine that when passengers boarded United Airlines Flight 4344 with service from Jackson Mississippi to Houston Texas there was no inkling about the drama that was about to unfold. The flight left Jackson about 11:30 yesterday morning.
At 12:24 pm the Rapides Parish Sheriff s Department received a 911 call about an aircraft with a midair emergency. That threat suggested there was a possible explosive device onboard the aircraft. Approximately four minutes later the aircraft was safely on the ground at Alexandria International Airport. However, the plane was not taxied to the gate.
