A United Airlines flight from Los Angeles to London was diverted to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport because of an unruly passenger.
The Chicago Tribune reports (http://trib.in/Qe0gq2) that the flight arrived at O'Hare early Wednesday and was canceled after the incident. Authorities say a female passenger apparently pushed other passengers and an airplane crew member. Federal authorities did not charge the woman because the flight was over Canada at the time of the disturbance. Chicago police said they responded to the gate.
United-Continental spokeswoman Christen David says United 934 was diverted to Chicago at 1:21 a.m. David says passengers were switched to other flights.
