Passengers on an American Airlines flight to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in Texas restrained a man with a Canadian passport using duct tape Tuesday after he allegedly attempted to open a cabin door while in the air, according to reports.

FOX 4 KDFW reported a flight attendant on the flight from Milwaukee told police the man got up in the middle of the flight and told her he "needed to exit the plane immediately."

The man reportedly grew more agitated and got louder before rushing a 79-year-old female flight attendant to gain access to the cabin door.

Three passengers then rushed to assist the flight attendant while trying to pin the man down. Using duct tape, they were able to restrain the man’s legs and wrists.

The plane reached its destination just after 10 a.m., when airport police and the FBI boarded the plane.

When they entered the cabin, one of the passengers was still kneeling on the disruptive passenger to prevent him from getting away. He was taken off the plane in a wheelchair.
