Albuquerque, N.M. • A man described as suicidal after cutting himself with a broken mug caused an hours-long lockdown at Albuquerque’s airport before he was arrested inside the main terminal, police said Sunday.
The man, whose name wasn't immediately released, boarded a flight around 8 a.m. Sunday at Albuquerque International Sunport and then was asked to disembark the plane after becoming disruptive, police spokesman Simon Drobik said.
While in the process of getting on another flight, the man "was able to go to a kiosk, grab a mug, break that mug and start using it as a weapon to hurt himself," Drobik said.
