Florida man's bomb threat grounded Allegiant Air flight

A Florida man's false claim that his laptop was a bomb forced an Allegiant Air flight to make an emergency landing. The plane, en route to Virginia, returned to Florida after the passenger, Taj Malik Taylor, made the threat. Taylor, 27, told a fellow passenger his laptop was a bomb, prompting the pilot to turn back. Law enforcement arrested Taylor after the plane landed safely, and a search found no explosives. The flight later continued to its original destination. Taylor, who cited mental health issues, faces federal charges and a potential five-year prison sentence. The incident caused delays for 177 passengers and six crew members.
