\nHi Blog. Here’s something simultaneously scary and amusing: a bomb threat by a Japanese man during (but unrelated to, he claims) the G8 Summit. \u00a0Naturally, as contributor AW points out, he would not have been snagged by the Hokkaido Police’s racial profiling<\/a>. \u00a0And image the hay the police would make if the perp had been NJ. \u00a0“Hey, good thing we did all the security checks on the gaijin!.” \u00a0Sorry there’s not much hay to be made this time around–wrong race. \u00a0Maybe it’s time the police disengaged race and nationality from criminal intent. \u00a0But I’ve suggested that both to them and to readers here ad nauseam by now. \u00a0Sigh. \u00a0Debito in Sapporo<\/p>\n

SAPPORO \u2014A bomb threat by a male passenger on Tuesday grounded a commercial flight bound for Tokyo from New Chitose Airport, the closest major airport to the site of the ongoing Group of Eight nations\u2019 summit, airport and police officials said. Takanari Deto, a 69-year-old realtor living in Sapporo city, was arrested on suspicion of obstructing business by force. He had said his luggage contained a bomb and started making a scene after boarding Air Do Flight 20, which was scheduled for departure at 2 p.m., the officials said.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Police found no suspicious objects in the plane, they said. Deto told the police that his act is not related to the G-8 summit. A total of 215 passengers and crew members had to get off the plane so police could search it. The plane left the airport about three hours behind schedule after safety was confirmed. About 40 passengers were placed on other flights.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
