4630 REVIEW DENIED A person who, knowing the statement is false, tells a peace officer that there is a bomb in a public or private place thereby violates Penal Code section 148.1 regardless of whether the officer believes s/he is making a false bomb threat, so an arrest of such person is justified and does not result in liability for false imprisonment (i.e., false arrest).CitationLEVIN v UNITED AIR LINES (Baggage Bomb) 158 CA4 1002 [See: PenC 148.1; Gillan v City 147 CA4 1033, T/AT 3/07; Schenck v US 249 US 47]
