WestJet plane makes Thunder Bay emergency landing

A WestJet flight made an emergency landing in Thunder Bay on Sunday after a bomb scare.

This was after a man became agitated and started talking about a bomb. The man is a Portuguese citizen with a history of mental illness. With no charges laid, he will be allowed to go back to Portugal.

A hundred and eighteen passengers were evacuated from the plane so police could search it. When they didn’t find a bomb, the plane was cleared to continue the flight.

The plane was headed to Toronto from Vancouver.
