A man has been arrested over a disturbance on board an easyJet flight to Scotland.
The suspect was removed from the aircraft, which had travelled from London Luton Airport, after it touched down at Glasgow Airport at about 8.20am on Sunday.
Footage is circulating online which appears to show a man on a plane shouting something about a “bomb”, along with “death to America, death to Trump” and “Allahu Akbar” – an Arabic phrase that means “God is greater”.
The man is then tackled to the ground and pinned to the floor of the aircraft by two men.
Police Scotland said a 41-year-old man was arrested and remains in custody.
