A man and a woman were filmed being removed from the Edinburgh to Tenerife flight
A holidaymaker was allegedly Tasered and dragged off a Jet2 flight from Edinburgh after claims of "unruly behaviour" forced the plane to divert. The 26-year-old man was filmed being marched across the runway by security personnel after being removed from the Tenerife-bound plane.
Video footage taken at the airport and shared online by Portuguese newspaper Diario de Noticias showed two passengers - a man and a woman - being taken off the plane by police. In a statement, the PSP said the plane was forced to divert to Porto Santo "after reporting a situation of a disorderly passenger, whose behaviour raised immediate concerns among the crew".
"The citizen ended up being detained by the police present there for the crime of disobedience, following the normal procedural steps, and the flight continued to its destination," PSP said.
