Police hogtie airplane passenger, carry him away

Airplane passenger is hogtied and arrested at LAX

LOS ANGELES (Fox 32 News) - An airplane passenger was hogtied and arrested at Los Angeles International Airport on Saturday morning.

The man had apparently locked himself inside the restroom of American Airlines flight #362 to Chicago. He refused to come out, and thus all the other passengers were removed from the plane.

The restroom door was forced open by police.

The man, Collin Welk of Elizabethtown, Penn., was booked on charges of public intoxication and resisting arrest.

Passengers were later allowed back on the plane and left for Chicago without further incident.
