Man tries to hijack plane using plastic knife from meal tray

Choose your weapon!

Egyptian security agents on Wednesday arrested a Sudanese man who tried to hijack an airliner armed with a plastic knife.

The passenger grabbed the knife from his meal tray after the Egypt Air plane left Turkish airspace bound for Cairo. He then demanded the crew divert the aircraft to Jerusalem.

Egyptian onboard security officers reacted immediately, calmed the passenger down and arrested him while the flight continued without disruption. No one was hurt in the incident.

It was not immediately clear what his motives were.

It also wasn’t clear whether he was smarter than your average hoe handle.
