A JetBlue flight from Las Vegas was evacuated after landing in Los Angeles on Thursday after reports of a suspicious package on board.

At around 2 p.m. authorities said a disgruntled passenger who missed his flight from Vegas made a statement saying his luggage “contained a possible bomb” aboard the aircraft.

The JetBlue plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport and was moved to an isolated area.

Passengers and crew aboard the plane were evacuated and taken back to the terminal on shuttle busses as a police bomb squad inspected the aircraft.
