Pantsless woman forces Houston-bound flight to land in Alabama

A woman dressed only in a T-shirt and underwear caused a Houston-bound flight to land in Mobile, Ala.

Fox 10 News reports that Sierra Nicole McClinton forced the CommutAir (operating at the time as United Express) plane to land because of her “unruly behavior” on Thursday. McClinton was reportedly fully dressed upon boarding the flight, but had undressed by the time the incident occurred.

Authorities who handled the matter stated that McClinton was incredibly intoxicated, yelling obscenities and consistently rejecting officer’s commands once the plane landed in the Heart of Dixie.

McClinton’s in-flight belligerence reportedly got to a point where she became involved in an altercation with another passenger. After a flight attendant attempted to calm her down to no avail, the flight’s employees found it best to land in order to properly handle the situation.

Fox News further reports that after McClinton was arrested, the flight was able to resume its intended route to Houston. McClinton now faces charges of disorderly conduct and public intoxication.
