Boeing 737 Aeromexico plane has been hijacked in Mexico with up to 104 passengers. Apparently the three hijackers are threatening to blow it up unless they get to speak to the president of Mexico.
The plane is currently landed in Mexico City.
It is live right now on CNN with Rick Sanchez translating the news to for us English speakers. Here is a link to the live feed.
Reports are saying that the passengers have been released. Interviews with some passengers note that most were not aware that the plane was hijacked. All passengers will be separated into groups and interviewed to make sure that there aren’t any of the hijackers pretending to be passengers.
Update: there were 5 suspected hijackers and they have been taken into custody. And they didn’t have a bomb.
