The Lubbock Preston Smith International Airport, located in Texas's northwestern city of Lubbock, resumed flights a day after a passenger claimed that he was carrying explosives in his luggage Thursday, local TV ABC13 reported.

　　The man, later identified as 51-year-old Klaus Scholz, told an airport worker to carefully handle his luggage because it was carrying C-4, an explosive that requires a detonator. Authorities say airport police arrested him and the airport was shut down.

　　Airport officials said investigators examined Scholz's luggage, but found no explosives. Scholz is charged with making a terrorist threat and was released Friday after he posted a bond of 50,000 U.S. dollars.
