Two British travelers were barred from entering the U.S. after posts on Twitter indicated they had plans to 'destroy America' and 'dig up Marilyn Monroe,' The Sun reports.

Leigh Van Bryan, 26, and Emily Bunting 24, were detained upon arrival to Los Angeles after Homeland Security discovered the tweets.

The two were then reportedly questioned for five hours before being put on a van with illegal immigrants and then held overnight.

They spent 12 hours in separate holding cells before being put on a flight home, the Sun reports.
