Horror as Man Dies on Aer Lingus Flight ‘After Biting Passenger’
By Pat Flynn. A man died onboard an Aer Lingus flight this evening, forcing the plane to make an emergency landing.
Flight EI 485 was travelling from Lisbon, Portugal, to Dublin, when it is understood a passenger onboard “ran amok”, apparently “biting” one of his fellow passengers.
Reports claim the man began “biting another passenger” and was later restrained by crew after becoming “extremely violent”.
It is understood the man later became unwell after being restrained and fell into a state of unconsciousness, before being pronounced dead on the Dublin-bound flight.
Crew broadcast an emergency ‘Pan Pan’ message three times in quick succession and advised air traffic controllers of an incident on board the Airbus A320-200. (Read more from “Horror as Man Dies on Aer Lingus Flight ‘After Biting Passenger'” HERE)
