International flight diverted to Seattle after passenger allegedly tries to open exit midflight

An All Nippon Airways flight from Tokyo to Houston was diverted to Seattle after a passenger attempted to open exit doors midflight, prompting reports of an “unruly” individual. The incident occurred nearly 10 hours into the flight, leading to the passenger being restrained and later evaluated for a medical crisis before being taken to a hospital. A second passenger was also removed for separate unruly behavior before the flight continued to Houston without further incidents, with the airline emphasizing the priority of passenger and crew safety.
