A 33-year-old American man was removed from a trans-Atlantic flight that was forced to make a stop over in Gander late last week.

Gander RCMP and Canadian Border Services were alerted shortly before 9:00 a.m. Friday that an international flight was diverting to the airport due to a disturbance on board.

The unruly passenger was arrested and removed from the plane and the flight, from London to New York, resumed a short time later.
