Airplane passenger flips out, bites man, dies

DUBLIN — Police say a 24-year-old Brazilian man has collapsed and died on board an Irish aircraft after becoming frenetic and attacking a fellow passenger.

Sunday night’s Aer Lingus flight from Lisbon, Portugal, to Dublin was diverted to the southwest Irish city of Cork, where paramedics pronounced the man dead on arrival.

Passengers said he had bitten a man sitting near him and crew members sought to handcuff him before he lost consciousness. A doctor and nurse on board failed to revive him.

Cork police arrested a 44-year-old Portuguese woman traveling with the Brazilian man after discovering 2 kilograms (5 pounds) of suspected amphetamine powder in her suitcase.

The bitten passenger was admitted to a Cork hospital, while the other 165 passengers and six crew members traveled by bus to Dublin.

The man may have had an illness and bitten the person which could of caused him to lash out and investigation, will happen so doctors can check the body of the person which could of taken drugs. It is shocking that a man was attacked and someone lost their life in the process, drugs can take a life which many people don't realize this most of the time. I reckon that the women will now face time behind bars and will maybe feel guilty for the man's death as she had drugs in the briefcase, which did contain these drugs and also people should learn from this.

It sounds like a scene from the 'Walking dead'! Undetected virus?
