There was violence on a flight from Toronto to Ben-Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv which compelled the flight to make an unscheduled stop in London. It is reported that after about six hours into the flight, a woman became disorderly and began attacking passengers.
Emergency procedures were implemented and police were notified and waiting on the runway as the plane touched down in Heathrow Airport. It appears the woman on Air Canada flight AC84 began attacking passengers at random. The flight took off on Tuesday night from Toronto and it was forced to make the unscheduled stop over to have the woman removed from the flight.
The plane was delayed for about an hour and then took off to its destination, Tel Aviv.
