AUTOMATED SUMMARY

A Honduran national who had been deported twice allegedly tried to force his way into the cockpit of a United Airlines flight from Newark to New Orleans on Monday night, saying he had a bomb.

The plane landed safely and the man, Rony Alexander Gomez-Alberto, was arrested, with ICE lodging a detainer with local authorities.

DHS says he was granted asylum in 2020 after claiming to be transgender, a claim the department now describes as fraud.
