MINNEAPOLIS -- A Delta Air Lines jet is finally headed for Minneapolis after returning to Japan due to some disruptive passengers.
Delta says the Boeing 747 was three hours into a 13-hour flight Monday when the decision was made to turn back to Japan, where the passengers were removed by Japanese authorities.
Narita International Airport police spokesman Keiji Shuto says two male passengers had locked themselves inside the airplane's restrooms for about an hour and refused to come out, prompting the attendants to force open the doors. Shuto says airline officials found at least one plastic bag containing an unidentified liquid.
He says the men were questioned by Delta, but not arrested by police.
Airport officials say the flight took off for Minneapolis Tuesday morning after spending the night.
