5 EYEWITNESS NEWS has learned that federal investigators and airport police are questioning six Middle Eastern men who had to be escorted off of a plane Monday afternoon at Minneapolis/St. Paul International.
U.S. Airway officials tell 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS Aviation Expert Bob McNaney that Monday while Flight 300 was preparing to take off from Minneapolis to Phoenix, a passenger passed a note to a flight attendant saying they noticed 'suspicious behavior,' among the men. The men would not get off the plane when asked, 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS has learned, and had to be removed by police.
Thanks for that. I got a phone call I had to take and haven't been able to do more poking around.
Ten O'clock local time is coming up and the news said there'd be a "live report". Tune in and tell us whas' up.
Sources tell 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS that the men were chanting 'Allah, Allah, Allah,' as they were transported down the jetway.
definitely need to follow this story. Good for the Patriot who reported them, and good for the crew for saving lives!!
