Here's what we posted to our site:
A Southwest Airlines flight from Oakland bound for Las Vegas turned back Thursday after a male passenger exposed himself, became unruly, and eventually removed all his clothes.
According to the summary from the Federal Aviation Administration, Southwest flight 943 was headed to Las Vegas when a male passenger exposed himself to another female passenger. He then struck a different female passenger, and was restrained by other passengers on the flight.
He wasn't done, however; the summary says the passenger became unruly and got naked, where he was then subdued again by crew and other passengers and possibly restrained either in the galley area of the aircraft or possibly the lavatory.
The Southwest pilot chose to return to Oakland to have the passenger removed by law enforcement. The struck female passenger was treated by medical officials and wasn't seriously injured.
A message to Dallas-based Southwest wasn't immediately returned.
(If anybody has photos out there, send along. Must be safe for work, though.)
