Unruly Passenger Disrupts Hawaii Flight

Tennessee Man Arrested Upon Landing

For all the extra security at airports over the holidays, the only serious threat to surface amid the hush-hush and the "nothing to see here" comments from Washington occurred -- not on a foreign flight, but on a domestic run from Detroit (MI) to Honolulu (HI). The suspect wasn't a foreign terrorist, but a 31-year old American from Tennessee, who allegedly told members of the flight crew he "needed to go to the cockpit."

Brandon Gabriel Brines is being held in a federal detention facility next to the airport in Hawaii. He's accused of interfering with a flight crew.

A spokesman for the Hawaii Department of Transportation says two flight attendants and two off-duty airline workers subdued Brine about two hours before landing in Hawaii. No injuries were reported. Northwest Airlines Flight 923 landed without incident.
