Police are calling it a nasty trick on a passenger.
A US Airways plane ... bound for Dallas is ordered back to Philadelphia ... after police receive a phone call they are now calling a hoax.
Philadelphia Police Inspector Joe Sullivan.
(SOUNDBITE) (English) INSPECTOR AT PHILADELPHIA POLICE DEPARTMENT, JOSEPH SULLIVAN, saying:
"In that phone call it was alleged that a man, and a name was given, would attempt to get on an airplane in route somewhere in Texas with a dangerous or hazardous substance."
Police evacuated the plane and found no explosives. They say the initial call appears to be a prank played on the passenger in his 20s.
