Two people have been arrested in a flight that was supposed to travel from Japan to Minneapolis Monday, according to Delta officials.
The plane was rerouted mid-flight and returned to Narita International Airport without incident, Delta said. The two people were taken into custody by law enforcement.
There has not been any information released on why the two people were arrested.
The flight was canceled for Monday and an extra flight was scheduled for Tuesday.
Hotel rooms were reserved for the delayed passengers.
Delta officials said the airline is cooperating with local law enforcement.
There were 386 passengers onboard the canceled flight.

“A Delta Airlines Boeing 747-400, registration N675NW performing flight DL-620 from Tokyo Narita (Japan) to Minneapolis,MN (USA) with 407 people on board, was enroute about one hour into the flight, when two male passengers were observed carrying a plastic bag containing some liquid into a lavatory raising concerns with the crew. The captain ordered the two passengers to be detained and decided to return to Tokyo for a safe landing. The passengers were taken into custody by Tokyo police.
Laboratory tests revealed the liquid was not dangerous at all identifying the liquid as urine.
The flight was cancelled.”
See my post 7...Someone was ‘pissed’.....
Turned out to be a ‘wet’ run....
Officials stormed the plane, dragged the two off, telling them ....”Urine Trouble!!!”
This should probably be moved to chat.....
This does not make sense? Why were they carrying urine? A false run?
I’ve seen some strange stuff on international flights...
But, I would think, in this day and age, that folks would just try to not draw attention to themselves...
Maybe that’s just me.

They need to pass their drug screening when they go back to work!
Yes you are seeing increased activity. According to a friend who works at TSA LAX there is a hell of a lot more going on than we are being told... They said that we should be on our guard at all times, all times.. and report anything that is out of the ordinary. Common sense I guess... but they were pretty adamant...
Can urine be mixed with anything to make something potentially dangerous?
It's not just you, it's real. I get the feeling something is going to happen this summer.
