  "summary": "A United Airlines flight from Newark, New Jersey, to New Orleans, Louisiana, was forced to issue a hijacking alert on Monday night after a passenger, 34-year-old Rony Gomez Alberto, allegedly claimed to have a bomb and attempted to storm the cockpit. The aircraft landed safely at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, where Alberto was arrested and charged with communicating false information about planned arson and terrorising. This incident is reminiscent of another recent event where a 25-year-old passenger, Dante Milne, was arrested for allegedly threatening to hijack a United Airlines flight to New Jersey.",
