A flight attendant has been arrested for making a bomb threat in hopes of stopping her ex-boyfriend from flying to Miami with his new lover.

Daniela Carbone, a flight attendant with Aerolíneas Argentinas, made the bomb threat right before the plane was scheduled to fly from Argentina's capital Buenos Aires to Miami on May 21, according to a June 2 report in Spanish by Argentine newspaper La Nación, citing judicial sources.

"Tell the captain that we planted three bombs on him in Miami. Stop messing with politics and check the plane because they are going to fly into a thousand pieces," Carbone, 47, said, per the report.

Federal judge Federico Villena said Carbone used her daughter's cell phone to make the threat, per La Nación. She then used voice distortion software to conceal her identity, according to the report.

Carbone also threatened the pilot in charge of the flight, telling him that she knew which schools his daughters attended, per La Nacion.

Argentina's Airport Security Police arrested Carbone at Ezeiza International Airport in Buenos Aires for aggravated coercion, public intimidation, and hindering public service the same day she made the bomb threat, according to Argentina's newspaper Clarín. If found guilty, Carbone could face up to six years in jail.

The 270 passengers on board the Aerolíneas Argentinas AR1304 flight had to be evacuated from the plane, per a June 12 report by La Nación. Carbone's ex-boyfriend, who's only known as Picho, and his current girlfriend, were both working as cabin crew on that flight, per Clarín.

Carbone and Picho were in a relationship for five years, according to Clarín. Carbone threatened to plant bombs as she "could not stand being abandoned by Picho" for another flight attendant who was younger, several employees of the airline told Clarín.

Carbone's attorney Agustín Esnal declined to respond to Insider's request for comment.

Carbone has since been fired by Aerolíneas Argentina, per La Nación. According to Clarín, the airline lost some $1 million in revenue, as it had to reschedule flights.

It's not the first time someone has made a hoax bomb threat because of love. In January, a 24-year-old man in India was arrested for making a fake bomb threat so his friends could spend more time with two women they were interested in. And in 2016, a man from Queens said that he was carrying a bomb at JFK Airport so that his girlfriend couldn't get on her flight to see her ex-husband.

Aerolíneas Argentinas did not immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.
