I read he was trying to sneak a smoke in the bathroom and no explosives were found on him


Denver A Qatari diplomat trying to sneak a smoke in an airplane bathroom sparked a bomb scare Wednesday night on a flight from Washington to Denver, with fighter jets scrambled and law enforcement put on high alert, officials said.

No explosives were found on the man, and officials do not believe he was trying to harm anyone, according to a senior law enforcement officials who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Initial reports indicated the man was trying to set off a bomb by lighting his shoe on fire.

An Arab diplomat briefed on the matter identified the diplomat as Mohammed Al-Madadi. The sources asked not to be identified because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation.

Officials said air marshals aboard the flight restrained the man and he was questioned. The plane landed safely as military jets were scrambled.

Flights continued to land and take off at Denver International Airport, one of the nation’s busiest. Passengers from other flights picked up their luggage in the airport’s baggage area, apparently unaware of any emergency.

A senior State Department official said the agency was aware of the tentative identification of the man as a Qatari diplomat and that there would be “consequences, diplomatic and otherwise” if he had committed a crime.
