A passenger on a United Airlines flight had to be tied up and gagged and the flight diverted after he refused to come out of the bathroom and then turned violent when confronted by staff.
The United Airlines flight 944 to Frankfurt, Germany, from Chicago was diverted to Cleveland on Friday night after the flight attendant found that the large man had been in the bathroom for almost 30 minutes and refused to come out.
When he eventually did he started screaming at the flight attendants and put one in a headlock before wrestling him to the ground.
That is when some of the passengers on board were asked to help.
Joe Shulfer, of Woodstock, told Newsradio 780: 'The flight attendant just ran up to me and literally grabbed me by the shirt and said, "You need to come with me now".'
By then three men were already wrestling with him and they managed to handcuff him and tie up his feet. Then he started spitting and swearing.

5 minutes before our decent he went into the bathroom and NEVER came out, even after I departed the plane. I was on high alert and there was definitely something going on.
Soft Pretzels, particularly sesame ring pretzels are kept in shape through the use of Zantham Gum.
Zantham gum? Isn’t that another one of those manufactured corn byproducts?
Lots of Muslims in Akron, mainly Somali IIRC. For some reason, lots of Somalis moved into those Northern states like Wisconsin, Minnesota and Ohio.
Moral of the story, dont use the bathroom for too long or youll be dragged out and hogtied.

The moral of the story is to read the whole story. I guess you missed the putting the flight attendent in a headlock.
Yikes! That would drive me nuts!
I don’t know why you folks are so upset over a muslim on a plane. After all, we have a muslim on AF-1 all the time.
Alramakh breaks into AL RA MAKH ~ which is kind of funny since it's got mixed grammatical elements (which makes it terribly difficult to translate since my knowledge of Arabic is limited). However, it could mean "From Mecca", or "On the way to Mecca", or "Turned around at Mecca" ~ and that sort of confusion in grammer means this guy has an old noble family name if he's Arabic, or just a made up name if he's not.
He could be a rich Saudi or a poor Yemeni.
The President of Yemen carries a surname of Saleh.
I certainly wouldn't use the headlock thing but he would have closed the door quietly and whimpered.
Minnesota gives immigrants a 5 year state tax-free status. Despite the fact that they are the greatest drain on the taxpayer, society, welfare and social services; the Somali and other immigrants don’t have to pay into the tax system that supports them, for a period of 5 years.
Not too surprisingly - more than a few leave after this benefit ends. Gee, thanks Minnesota.
Next thing you know ya got the right stuff and you purify it a bit and stick it in your food!
The problem wasn’t that he was in the bathroom. The problem was that he would not respond to the flight attendant and when they opened the door, he had pulled the mirror off and was pulling wires out of the ceiling which was followed by assaulting the flight attendant and then spitting at passengers and crew when the finally tied him up.
Pulling wires out of a flying plane warrants a beat down in my book.
Important info from the story, is that one of the men who helped with the guy said that there were wires hanging out of the ceiling in the rest room and that the mirror had been moved. I hope these guys got in a few painful punches on this jihadist.
