Just picked up radio transmission from DAL 110. Reporting passanger onboard claims to have a bomb.

Paul,
What frequency? Any more details?

Strange, the flight trackers are showing it as having landed at LAX an hour ago ...
Sounds like DAL 110 had landed and was at the gate. The were requested to change radio frequency to 2785 and I lost contact. The voice transmission said a passanger was claiming to have a bomb in his luggage and they were requesting assistance. When I received the voice transmission the flight was showing on RadarBox as still in the air on approach to KLAX but this must have been due to the 5 minute delay. Info is DAL 110 registration N834MH. That's all I have. What is the squawk for a bomb threat? Would an aircraft squawk this code if at the gate and not in the air?

Reports are coming in. About 1.5 minutes before touchdown a passenger claimed to be sick and wanted to use the lab, flight attendant didn't not allow him then he ran up the isle claiming to have a bomb, attempted to open the emergency exit door, passengers helped take down the man. Flight was DL110 ATL-LAX, seems to be a 764.
