A United Airlines flight was diverted after a passenger lit a cigarette, argued with a flight attendant, and then urinated in the plane’s aisle.
Flight 1502 had 117 passengers on board when it was diverted from its Orlando-Washington route.
The plane landed at Charlotte.
The man who was not immediately identified was taken into federal custody, according to wire service reports.
Perhaps not surprisingly, flight attendants said the man appeared drunk when he got on the plane in Orlando. Attendants complained when he lit a cigarette; his response was to urinate.
