Bomb-sniffing dogs swept a Delta Airlines flight from Atlanta upon landing Saturday after authorities said a passenger tampered with a smoke detector and moved ceiling panels in a lavatory.
[...]
The passenger on Delta Flight 6492 was overheard being "disruptive" in the lavatory by flight attendants and had spent an extended amount of time there, said Transportation Security Administration spokeswoman Jennifer Peppin.
The man had apparently tampered with the smoke detector, Vasys said. Authorities said ceiling tiles had also been moved.
A bomb-sniffing dog that inspected the lavatory upon landing "showed some interest," airport spokesman David Hebert said.
FBI says passenger not suspicious after all
The F-B-I in San Antonio says a passenger detained after flight attendants said he tampered with a bathroom smoke detector isn't suspicious after all.
[...]
But F-B-I spokesman Erik Vasys says there was just no evidence the man was behaving suspiciously. The man was released after questioning and a search of his home.
Explosives experts searched the plane after it landed but found nothing.

Nothing was found out of the ordinary, and authorities still weren't sure what happened in the bathroom. Vasys said officials didn't even have enough evidence "to make it a vandalism or damage charge" against the detained passenger, the spokesman said.
I wonder if he was Pakistani, like that poor lady last week?
Take one - hysteria
Airport terminal evacuated after explosive found in luggageTake two - reality
No explosives in US airport alertExpect to see more of these stories the closer to the election we get. Personally, I'm expecting a 'terrerist attack' sometime late September or early October because, as former White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card put it, "from a marketing standpoint, you don't roll out a new product in August."
