A passenger on the flight became combative and assaulted a flight attendant, Oklahoma City Police Capt. Arthur Gregory said. The Oklahoma City Police Department said officers boarded the plane after it landed at around 7:30 p.m. and removed the passenger, who was later identified as Ariel Pennington, 35, from the plane.

Delta said in a written statement that it “applauds the quick action and professionalism of the crew and Federal Air Marshals" on the flight that was diverted after the passenger "became unruly."
