A Russian plane was forced to make an emergency landing in Prague Thursday after an apparently intoxicated passenger threatened to detonate a bomb, officials said.
An Aeroflot spokesman said that the crew of flight A320, which had 148 passengers on it, had to pacify a drunk by tying him up after he made threats.
After the incident was over, the captain decided it would be best to make an emergency landing.
A Russian news agency said that the unruly passenger was either drunk, high, or both.
Hmm, this is the second drunk person that has caused a ruckus in the last couple of days (second story from me). Looks like people need to stay away from the alcohol until they can better control their actions while under the influence.
