Police Arrest 'Disruptive' Passenger Aboard Plane at Detroit Airport
Sunday, December 27, 2009
Police have
arrested a Nigerian man who reportedly became verbally disruptive and
barricaded himself in the bathroom of a Detroit-bound Northwest
Airlines flight on Sunday.
Several
police vehicles and a police command unit have surrounded a plane at
Detroit's Metro Airport, after the pilot of a Detroit-bound Northwest
Airlines flight requested emergency help.
Two
sources tell Fox News that the suspect boarded a plan in Lagos with no
baggage, and said the FBI has already sent an email alert to other
federal agencies notifying them of the incident.
The
source said the man taken into custody at the Detroit airport was a
Nigerian man in his 30s. Federal officials know who the suspect is, but
won't provide any more details. He allegedly barricaded himself in the
plane's bathroom for an hour.
