A Delta Air Lines passenger jet from Colombia was diverted Sunday to a Navy station in the Florida Keys because a passenger was on a federal watch list, the FBI said.
The passenger was removed from the plane at U.S. Navy’s Boca Chica airfield just north of Key West at about 1:30 p.m., said FBI spokeswoman Judy Orihuela. The passenger’s luggage was also removed, then the flight continued to it’s original destination of Atlanta.
