The Spirit Airways flight was halted and officers removed the four people, reportedly of Middle Eastern descent, after a passenger reported “suspicious activity” to the crew. “Everything added up to create a situation where she felt concerned,” said a Maryland Transportation Authority spokesperson. “Everything was done in the interest of safety.” The people were not charged and the plane took off later.
