NFL player Aldon Smith arrested at airport for 'making bomb threat'

San Francisco 49ers player Aldon Smith was arrested on Sunday at Los Angeles Airport after allegedly telling security officers he had a bomb while being uncooperative during a bag search.

In footage posted online the 6ft 4in linebacker can be seen speaking with officers before being lead away, telling them he'd done nothing wrong and saying they would be 'embarrassed'.

Smith was arrested around 2pm and booked on one count of 'false report of a bomb', a charge which carries a penalty of up to one year behind bars. He has been released after posting $20,000 bail.

Since he's a high profile football player he'll get a slap on the wrist and pay a fine. I think he should be punished to the full extent of the law. Many of these people think they can do whatever they want without consiquences.

They must have a rap song or something going about making bomb threats because it's becoming all too common these days.

Aldon has a history of being bat-$hit insane. Regardless of the law, he will be punished AGAIN by the NFL.

These idiots should be banned from football, removing their opportunity to make all that money. Will have to rely on "Want fries w/ that"
