A flight out of San Francisco International Airport was deboarded Thursday afternoon after an unruly teenage passenger s antics culminated in a threat being announced on the plane.
The flight, from SFO to Orlando International Airport, was scheduled to leave at 2 p.m. already facing a slew of delays.
But radio host and reporter Chris Beale told SFGATE that the flight was held on the tarmac after several passengers reported receiving inappropriate photos. His mother, Alesia Dobson, is a passenger on the flight.
