Here's one story...
Police temporarily detained and questioned three passengers at Detroit's Metropolitan Airport after the crew of a Frontier Airlines flight from Denver reported suspicious activity on board, and NORAD sent two F-16 jets to shadow the flight until it landed safely, airline and federal officials said.
The crew had reported that two people were spending "an extraordinarily long time" in a bathroom," Frontier spokesman Peter Kowalchuck said.
The three passengers, who were taken off the plane in handcuffs, were released Sunday night, and no charges were filed against them, airport spokesman Scott Wintner said. FBI Detroit spokeswoman Sandra Berchtold said authorities determined there was no real threat.

The man was stopped about 9:30 a.m. at the Southwest Airlines checkpoint at Kansas City International Airport. Transportation security agents who detected suspicious items in his bag asked to examine them, and he was detained when he refused, airline and law enforcement officials said.
The suspicious items tested negative for explosive materials, according to a statement from the Transportation Security Administration. A bomb squad and bomb-sniffing dogs remained on the scene Sunday afternoon, and passengers were being rescreened.
FBI spokeswoman Bridget Patton declined to say what the man was carrying, but she said the bomb squad used a high-pressure water force to disrupt the package, allowing for evidence to be preserved.
May I examine your items? No? Alright then, I'll just detain you and blast them open with a water hose. Have a nice day, citizen.
Taking a dump on an airplane? Here's your handcuffs. Have a nice day, citizen.
God bless America. Land of the sheep. Home of the slave.
