An unusual and extremely tense incident took place this afternoon at the Governor Horacio Guzmán International Airport when Emiliano “el Chavo” Endrizzi, a footballer for Gimnasia y Esgrima of Jujuy, was arrested after making a false bomb threat on board a flight that was about to depart for Buenos Aires.

The squad of the Jujuy “Lobo” was preparing to travel for its Primera Nacional match against Agropecuario when, in the middle of boarding or taxiing, the player shouted that he was carrying an explosive.

The situation immediately triggered airport security protocols, resulting in the following:

  • Total evacuation: All passengers were forced to get off the aircraft immediately so that security screening and checks could be carried out.
  • Immediate arrest: Officers from the Airport Security Police (PSA) arrested Endrizzi, who was taken away to give a statement on charges of public intimidation.
  • Flight delayed: Departure was temporarily suspended while specialized personnel inspected the plane and luggage in an isolated area of the airport.

Due to the seriousness of the act, which put airport operations at risk and caused panic among passengers, the management of Gimnasia de Jujuy is already evaluating the immediate termination of the footballer’s contract.
