Click Here "A male was observed by his fellow passengers as having a journal and hand written on the journal were the words 'suicide bomber,"' FBI spokeswoman LaRae Quy said. "That, combined with the fact that he was clutching a back pack and then finally he was acting a little suspiciously" prompted law enforcement to act. Authorities boarded the plane and arrested the man on the Frontier Airlines plane on charges of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. But the words "suicide bomber" appeared related to music, the FBI spokeswoman said. "Preliminary, what we believe is that that was the name of either a band or a song," Quy said. "At this point it does not appear to be terrorism related."
