Passenger: Bathroom denial preceded couple's outburst during MSP flight

A defiant couple disrupted a Delta flight Wednesday evening soon after it left Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport for Los Angeles, causing an upheaval that forced the airliner back to the Twin Cities.

Police led the man and woman off the plane as fellow passengers jeered, prompting the man to take a swing at one of the passengers, a witness said.

Flight 2565 left about 6:20 p.m. only to show up back at the Twin Cities airport at 7:35 p.m., said MSP spokesman Patrick Hogan.
