Airplane passenger wreaks havoc after failed attempt to “do” stranger

Listen

An unidentified female passenger on Delta Airlines flight from Baltimore to Salt Lake City had a few drinks and allegedly made sexual advances on a passenger next to her, the Huffington Post reported Tuesday.

When the passenger turned her down, she got angry and began making loud, expletive-laden threats. Another passenger caught some of her rant on his cell phone.

"Hey, lady! Over there! I need help, this guy is holding me!" she was heard saying to a fellow passenger.

The disturbance was such that the flight crew handcuffed her on board the plane and then diverted the flight to Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport so she could be handed over to airport police.

She was taken to a county medical center, airport spokesman Patrick Hogan told the Salt Lake Tribune.

The FBI and TSA are now investigating and the woman may face federal charges for causing a disturbance while the plane was in flight.
