NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
A flight was forced to make an emergency landing after a passenger repeatedly threatened those on board with a box cutter.
Frontier Airlines Flight 1761 from Cincinnati to Tampa was diverted to Atlanta after the passenger was seen with the sharp weapon, spokesperson Jennifer De La Cruz told CNN in a statement.
‘The aircraft landed safely in Atlanta and the passenger in question was taken into custody by Atlanta law enforcement,’ she said.
It is currently unknown how the unidentified passenger managed to smuggle the box cutter onto the flight or what circumstances prompted the discovery of the weapon.
