students arrested for leaving robot on plane
« on: April 04, 2012, 12:03:11 AM »

Flight attends confused the RC car with a cell phone and exposed wires as a bomb. It never occurred to them that explosive materials must be attached for anything to explode. So they arrested all the students and the attending professor.
