An Air Canada flight en route to Delhi was diverted back to Toronto early Wednesday after an unruly passenger allegedly assaulted a flight attendant.
Sgt. Rob Lyall of Peel Regional Police says a man in his 40s was taken into custody after the alleged incident, which occurred around midnight while the plane was over the ocean.
The flight attendant was not injured.
The flight was initially scheduled to take off earlier Tuesday but poor weather prompted Air Canada to postpone the flight shortly after the plane made it to the runway.
The flight is now scheduled to leave Pearson International Airport at noon today.
No names have been released.
