THIS JUST IN!!!!

I am quoting a report from Eyewitness news...A flight out of LaGuardia Airport was detoured to Philly due to a disturbance on the plane. Authorities have determined a 17-year-old passenger, who is an Orthodox Jew, started praying on board. That arose suspicion among crew members.

Police say the boy was using tefillin, a set of small black boxes attached to leather straps and containing biblical passages. One box is strapped to the arm; the other box is placed on the head. City police Lt. Frank Vanore says the crew on US Airways Flight 3079 questioned the teen, who explained the ritual. Still, the pilot decided to land in Philadelphia.

Police say the teen was cooperative with law enforcement. "It's something that the average person is not going to see very often, if ever," FBI spokesman J.J. Klaver said.

The teen, who is from White Plains, N.Y., and was traveling with his 16-year-old sister, was very cooperative, Vanore said. "They were more alarmed than we were," Vanore said.

Klaver said the teen and his sister were never in custody, and have been cleared to continue their travels. Police were called just before 9 a.m. Thursday. The flight was from LaGuardia Airport in route to Kentucky when the incident unfolded.


So...let's see. There were no Jews on board the plane other than these two kids? If there were Jews on board, are they so reformed that they don't know what a tefilin is? Or...did the person who reported this actually believe that the stolen G Spot might have been in the box on his head?
