CBS North Carolina reports a person who “passed gas” on an American Airlines plane on Sunday afternoon forced all passengers off the jet.
The incident happened when passengers on the flight became ill with nausea and headaches, according to a spokesperson with Raleigh-Durham International Airport.
The flight, which was not identified by RDU officials, landed at the airport around 4 p.m. when the incident was reported.
All the passengers were taken off the plane and after the incident was investigated it was determined that a passenger “passed gas,” the official said.
