‘DEATH to Trump…’: Man SCREAMS ‘Bomb the Plane’ Mid-Air, Arrested After Scuffle in Scotland | VIDEO

Mid-air panic struck an EasyJet flight from London Luton to Glasgow when a man screamed, “I’m going to bomb the plane,” triggering alarm among passengers. He was also heard yelling, “Death to America, death to Trump,” and “Allahu Akbar.” The shocking outburst was captured on video, now viral on social media. A male passenger quickly subdued the suspect before police arrested the 41-year-old upon landing in Glasgow. He remains in custody as counter-terrorism units examine the footage. Scotland Police confirmed investigations are ongoing. The airline, however, maintained that the safety of the passengers and flight was never compromised. Interestingly, the incident occurred just as former U.S. President Donald Trump was in Scotland finalizing a major trade deal with EU chief Ursula von der Leyen. The timing and nature of the incident have raised security concerns as authorities dig deeper into the suspect’s motivations and background. #DeathToTrump #FlightBombThreat #EasyJet #ScotlandNews #AirlineScare #PlaneTerror #BreakingNews #AllahuAkbar #DonaldTrump #TrumpInScotland #TerrorAlert #MidAirDrama #UKPolice #GlasgowFlight #PassengerArrested #CounterTerrorism #PlaneChaos #ViralVideo #TrumpNews #FlightSecurity ~HT.410~GR.125~
