A passenger on an Air Canada flight from London, England, to Toronto allegedly tried to open the aircraft doors midflight on Sunday, according to the airline and police.
In a statement, Air Canada said there was an incident involving a “disruptive passenger” on the Toronto-bound flight from London’s Heathrow airport.
Air Canada said their crews were able to manage the situation with the passenger, which allowed for the flight to continue normally to Toronto Pearson Airport.
The flight landed in Toronto just after 3 p.m. Sunday.
Peel Regional Police told Global News once the plane landed, officers entered the aircraft and found the passenger — an elderly man — “had been in a state of crisis and confusion.”
“It does not appear that his actions were intentional,” police said.
