German tourist makes bomb threat at Walt Disney World
Leah Zanolla | Posted: Nov 30, 2009 | Updated: Oct 19, 2014 - 9:25:27 AMA German tourist was arrested at Walt Disney World on Sunday after announcing that he was carrying bombs. Jochen Naumann of Leipzig, Germany told a Disney employee that he had two bombs in his backpack. Naumann, 37, was entering the Magic Kingdom through the security checkpoint when he made the bomb threat. The employee questioned him and he repeated his statement. An Orange County sheriff's deputy was stationed at the checkpoint and got a bomb-sniffing dog to check the bag. No explosives were found. Naumann was arrested and in his interview, he told deputies that he was only joking about having the explosives.
Naumann was charged with making a false report of a bomb, with bail set at $10,000. Bond is usually $5,000, but was doubled because Naumann is from out of the country.
