A United flight bound for Minneapolis diverted to Wisconsin on Friday night after reports of an unruly passenger, officials said. Flight UA2005, which originated in Chicago, “landed safely” at Dane County Regional Airport near Madison “to address a security concern with an unruly passenger,” a United spokesperson said. There were no reported injuries among the 147 passengers and six crew members on board. A spokesperson for the FBI’s Milwaukee office said the agency was notified of the flight’s diversion. Its Madison office and local law enforcement responded to the airport. A Dane County Sheriff’s Office official confirmed that the plane requested law enforcement assistance. “A subject was detained by the Dane County Sheriff’s Office and afterwards passengers resumed their flight,” the FBI spokesperson said. Air traffic control audio obtained by NBC News captured a discussion between ground and flight personnel when law enforcement responded to the incident. “I do not believe they ever cuffed him, but they were able to finally get control of him after multiple attempts to try to breach the cockpit,” a crew member can be heard saying. “I believe at this point he is seated in a seat and flanked with law enforcement officers on either side.” The flight continued on its journey to Minneapolis, landing early Saturday morning, according to FlightAware data.
