Plane lands in Knoxville, passenger taken into custody
March 24, 2004
KNOXVILLE (AP and WATE) -- A Comair flight from Cincinnati to Fort Lauderdale made an unscheduled landing Wednesday in Knoxville to remove a passenger described as unruly.
The FBI took the man into custody after the jet landed at McGhee Tyson Airport. The task force removed all luggage and passengers from the plane but found nothing suspicious.
6 News caught up with the passenger at a Greyhound bus station after the FBI released him.
"Michael" said he's from Switzerland. "I was in toilet for, as we say, 10 minutes. But because of that, I am not a terrorist. There came a dog, to try to find out if on the plane is some explosion. It doesn't make to me any sense that my behavior was a reason for them to make me a suspicion."
The flight continued on to Fort Lauderdale after an hour on the ground.

I guess if things weren't so serious these days this story would be hysterical. Just remember you cannot have a bathroom problem on a plane or else!!
