PHILADELPHIA (AP) -
Philadelphia police say a US Airways flight to Dallas was called back to Philadelphia because of a hoax phone call.
 
Chief Inspector Joe Sullivan says the caller identified the passenger and said he was flying to Texas with a dangerous substance.
 
He says the passenger actually had nothing dangerous and committed no crime.
