Second incident on Amsterdam-Detroit flight

Another man, also believed to be Nigerian, has been arrested following an incident on the Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit on Sunday, report various media.

It seems the man became abusive after being asked to leave the plane’s toilet where he had spent an unusually long time, according to the reports. The plane was approaching Detroit airport.
The crew requested assistance from the air traffic tower and the plane was routed to a special part of Detroit airport after landing. The man was arrested but according to media reports he is not believed to have represented a security risk.
