Gavin Andrew David 6 Report post Posted June 28, 2005 Hong Kong - A Hong Kong-bound jet with 256 people on board was forced to divert to southern Japan after a drunken passenger assaulted a stewardess, airline officials said on Tuesday. Fellow passengers overpowered the 40-year-old Turkish man after he allegedly pushed an air stewardess to the ground around two hours after the flight took off from Tokyo's Narita airport on Monday afternoon. The captain diverted to Fukuoka where passengers and cabin crew escorted the man off the Airbus A330 to waiting police, who arrested him for assault. No one was seriously hurt in the incident. The incident resulted in a 28-hour delay for passengers on Dragonair Flight KA361 which took off from Tokyo at 3.45pm on Monday and touched down in Fukuoka at 6.16pm www.iol.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
