Rodriguez and shared by CBS News on Saturday. The video showed Rodriguez and other passengers putting their heads down against the seats in front of them while other passengers appeared to be crying in the background."
"Another video from the same flight said agents were responding to a bomb threat. That video posted on TikTok by Username66788752 said SWAT team members boarded the plane to deal with the security issue; Those agents are seen wearing uniforms and helmets as they pull one man out of his seat, after he was told to stand up multiple times."
"It remains unclear exactly what the passenger in question did or said to trigger the security response. Officials have not confirmed if any dangerous items were actually found on the aircraft. Additionally, the current status of the detained passenger and whether they face charges remains unknown."
