An American Airlines jet made an emergency landing in Baltimore. A passenger was restrained with duct tape. He was named as Arthur Lundeen. Witnesses said he was taped to a first-class seat after a violent racist outburst.
Other passengers helped hold him down midair. Photos of the scene spread rapidly on social media. Reports say Lundeen yelled slurs and became belligerent. The plane was rerouted to Baltimore and landed safely. American Airlines said it was cooperating with authorities. No further details have been made public.
