'Unruly passenger' grounds flight out of Boston

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (MyFoxBoston.com) -- Officials say a rowdy passenger forced a flight out of Logan International Airport to make an unscheduled stop Thursday night.

The plane, which was headed to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., was diverted to Jacksonville for what JetBlue called an unruly customer.

A spokesperson for the airline told FOX 25 that person was taken into FBI custody. There is no word on what charges, if any, they may be facing.

The flight remained in Jacksonville overnight. It was expected to continue on to Fort Lauderdale Friday morning.
