A British Airways flight from London’s Heathrow airport to Boston was grounded Tuesday after an “unruly” female passenger tried to open the exit door, Massachusetts State Police said.
Conflicting early reports suggested the woman had to tried to open the cockpit door on Flight 213, which state police confirmed online was not the case.
Police also said the passenger was intoxicated, and that there’s “no known nexus to terrorism at this time.”
Investigation determines passenger was intoxicated, tried to open EXIT door, not cockpit door. No known nexus to terrorism at this time.

Massachusetts State Police were on hand to meet the plane after the crew summoned authorities.
The flight landed at Boston’s Logan International Airport at 1:30 p.m., a half-hour ahead of schedule, the Associated Press reported.
“We do not tolerate abusive behavior,” British Airways said in a statement to MSNBC. The airline also called the passenger “unruly.”
Well, she rang the bell to get off in Halifax, but they just would not stop.
OMG! OMG! OMG! I just wet myself!
Now I really laughed out loud at that.
OK, my TPM Headline translator is on the fritz so i clicked on the Reuters link and discovered that a passenger had been restrained and the Mass Police met the plane. I really don’t see where “grounded” has anything to do with this.
Seeing as Carson has vanished, what does this have to do with Trump?
