NEW YORK (AP) — A hollering, agitated passenger who ignored pleas to calm down spurred a pilot to divert a New York-to-Las Vegas JetBlue plane to Detroit over the weekend, according to the airline and a passenger’s video.

Flight 211 was headed west from New York’s Kennedy Airport when the passenger became unruly, and the captain decided to land in Detroit at around 8:30 a.m. Saturday out of “an abundance of caution,” JetBlue Airways Corp. said in statement Sunday.
