American Airlines Emergency Landing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

American Airlines stated that the flight resumed its journey from Buffalo shortly after the incident, thanking their team for their professionalism and customers for their understanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flight, originally from Chicago (ORD)<\/a> to Manchester (MHT), New Hampshire, diverted to Buffalo Airport (BUF) following the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A criminal affidavit filed in federal court revealed that McCarthy had been traveling from Portland to Manchester with a layover in Chicago, consuming several ‘Jack and Cokes’ before and during the flights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reports indicated that the accused has a medical urination problem. During the flight, he got up to use the restroom and, while returning to his seat, was ‘flicking the bean.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A flight attendant informed local law enforcement that McCarthy had exposed himself and urinated in the aisle of the small Embraer regional jet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
