The woman may be suffering from a medical issue, officials from Detroit Metro airport said following the incident.
A woman who tried to open an emergency exit door on a plane flying into Detroit yesterday was restrained by other passengers and arrested after the aircraft landed.
A spokesperson for Republic Airlines told Newsweek today: “We’re aware of an incident which occurred on our flight 5972 on Monday evening. While we can confirm that the flight landed without incident and ahead of schedule, we're unable to further comment as this matter is still being investigated.
