Flight Diversion

Thu, 2018-04-05

Police responded to a report of an unruly passenger onboard a flight that was on route from London Gatwick to Cancun Mexico. It appears that a 39 year old male British National was arrested and removed from the plane for being extremely intoxicated and unruly.

The suspect was assessed by on scene medical personnel but refused any kind of medical attention but was extremely unruly and whilst in custody threw himself to the ground and struck his head on the floor, sustaining what appears to be a minor self-inflicted head injury.

The suspect was taken to hospital via police vehicle where he is being treated and assessed.
