MyFoxDetroit.com - Sources tell Fox 2 that a flight from Amsterdam into Detroit Metropolitan Airport was held on the tarmac after landing because of unruly behavior by some of the passengers.Looks like the Feds are watching these flights pretty carefully if they have four Air Marshals on board. Maybe we should just automatically route these flights through Gitmo and just drop off the troublemakers.
The source says five men from Saudi Arabai were saying something in Arabic that alarmed four on-board Federal Air Marshals. The Marshals speak Arabic. A decision was made to stop the plane on the tarmac away from the passenger terminal and remove the men from the plane.
Once the men were removed, the rest of passengers were then taken to the terminal for deboarding.
The men are in currently in custody at Metro Airport and being questioned by federal authorities.
Fox 2 has a crew at Metro Airport and more information will be posted as soon as it becomes available.
