A passenger on American Airlines Flight 618 was restrained with duct tape and a ziptie after acting disruptively mid-flight. The incident occurred over halfway into the flight, prompting the crew to report a passenger disturbance. The plane was subsequently diverted to make an emergency landing.

The man, who was seated in the first-class section, reportedly started acting belligerent. A flight attendant initially tried to control the situation. Photos and videos of the unusual restraints were posted online.

Further details of the incident are available from CNN, which reported on the event based on a statement from the Federal Aviation Administration.
