An Air Canada flight from Jamaica to Toronto was diverted to Orlando, Fla., after authorities say a passenger became aggressive, attacked the crew with coffee pots and tried to open a cabin door.
A federal criminal complaint says crew members and other passengers secured Brandon Michael Courneyea using zip ties.
Orlando television station WFTV reports the FBI was contacted around 7:30 p.m. on Monday.
Investigators said Courneyea yelled at passengers for ``looking at him.''
They allege he then grabbed a coffee pot from the galley and swung it at crew members before saying it would ``only take one guy to take the plane down.''
Police say he then lunged for a rear door and began pulling the lever.
