RCMP said a 20-year-old man is facing charges in connection with the investigation of a disturbance on an Edmonton-bound flight late last month.
At the time, Mounties said the man was allegedly “behaving erratically” on a WestJet flight that landed at Edmonton International Airport on Aug. 31, 2016. The plane landed safely and the man was taken into custody immediately after.
