Disorderly woman chokes passengers aboard Israel-bound flight

Six hours after taking off from Toronto, Air Canada flight forced to land in London after a disorderly woman begins attacking fellow travelers: police waiting on the tarmac remove her before plane resumes journey.

A flight en route from Toronto to Ben Gurion Airport was forced to conduct an emergency landing in London on Wednesday morning after a female passenger began randomly strangling other passengers.

 

 

Police officers were called to the runway and waited on the tarmac on standby outside the Air Canada plane after it landed in Heathrow Airport to take the problematic passenger in for investigation before permitting the pilots to continue the flight’s journey to Israel.

“On the instructions of security officials the plane changed its flight route in order to remove a disorderly passenger during the flight,” said representatives of the company in Israel.

 

The flight crew aboard AC84 that took off on Tuesday night from Toronto to Israel was forced to declare an aviation emergency above the city of Glasgow in Scotland, six hours after the plane’s departure.

 

The crew, in accordance with flight procedure, removed the passenger from the flight with the help of the police who entered the plane the moment it touched down.

 

Following an hour-long delay the pilots were given the green light to take off again.
