CHARLOTTE, N.C -- Pilots diverted a United Airlines flight traveling from Orlando, Fla., to Washington, D.C., after a passenger lit a cigarette and urinated in the aisle.
The plane landed Friday night in Charlotte, N.C., where the man was taken into custody by federal authorities.
A United Airlines spokeswoman said flight attendants noticed the man appeared drunk not long after the plane left Orlando. She said the man later lit a cigarette and began to argue with a flight attendant who asked him to put it out.
The spokeswoman said that, after the exchange, the man stood up and urinated in the plane's aisle.

Nobody wants your public whizzing on a flight or on this site.
Old George has fallen pretty far since '72.
