Man claimed to have a bomb.

On Tuesday night, hundreds were evacuated from Florida’s Jacksonville International Airport after “suspicious packages” were found in the area. According to one report, a man claiming to have a bomb was apprehended by authorities, and later two men were handcuffed, one inside the airport and one outside. A bomb squad was reportedly en route to the area. Flights have been delayed, and at least some planes have been unable to depart. At 11:15 p.m., it was announced that the airport had reopened.
