Bomb threats are no joke, especially when you're on an airplane.
According to the LA Times, FBI agents and LAX airport police detained an unidentified man who claimed to have a bomb on a Delta Airlines flight bound for LAX from Atlanta, and a rapper helped subdue him.
Pennsylvania rapper Asher Roth was on the same flight, headed to Los Angeles for a performance on the Carson Daily show, when he and his band tackled the bomb scare man, and ultimately subdued him with plastic ties.
The FBI is currently interviewing the man, and has swept the plane for possible explosive devices.
Roth gave a statement to the FBI, and has been asking not to comment on the incident at this time.
The man could face federal or state charges.
