A US Airways flight was diverted to Philadelphia after a Jewish man’s prayer items triggered a bomb scare, Philadelphia police said.
Passengers grew alarmed when the man used a phylactery – a small black box Orthodox Jews strap to their head as part of their rituals, police said.
The man was not arrested and the plane landed without incident.
