Police nab S. Korean man over threat to bomb U.S. airport

SEOUL, March 17 (Yonhap) -- Police said Tuesday they have apprehended a South Korean man on suspicion of posting a threat to bomb a U.S. airport last year.

The 20-something man allegedly posted the threat on the website of a Detroit airport on March 20 last year and was caught after the U.S. Homeland Security Investigations requested the cooperation of the South Korean police in January.

The suspect has been referred to the prosecution on charges of making public threats, police said.
