Stag prank goes south after ‘fake bomb’ in the airport causes panic

Whoops

JOE

Stag parties are well known for their pranks.

But this guy went a step too far recently.

A 26-year old Glaswegian put a fake bomb in the groom’s bag that was picked up by the X-ray machine as it was scanned before heading to Berlin.

The prankster was then forced to come clean when security staff began to shut down the area.

According to the Scottish Sun, ‘panic spread’ across Glasgow airport after the fake bomb was spotted and the young man was arrested.

Although it was not a real bomb, the man will have to endure court proceedings over the incident which has not gone down well with the local police and security staff.

The Daily Record reported a source which said: “It may not have been a real bomb but in the current climate it was a very stupid thing to do.

“The security staff and police take a dim view of this.”.

Glasgow Airport said: “We can confirm an incident at the baggage screening area which resulted in police being called.”

Apparently the rest of the lads continued their weekend in Germany without their joker buddy who has to appear next month at the Paisley Sheriff Court for sentencing.

Ouch.
