A Very Near Miss

Earlier today a Nigerian with apparent terrorist ties attempted to blow up a Delta flight from Amsterdam to Detroit. Details are sketchy but it appears that he triggered the device but that it failed, succeeding only in starting a small fire. Passengers who noticed the "POP" and the flames subdued the man.
