MIAMI (WSVN) -- An airline passenger who allegedly claimed to have bombs in his bag appeared in court Wednesday.

Alejandro Hurtado was unable to post bond on Wednesday because of an immigration hold.

Hurtado was flying from Miami to Guatemala on Monday when he was questioned at Miami International Airport about items in his bag.

Officials said he told them he was carrying dynamite, but no explosives were found.
