Police storm TUI plane at Manchester Airport as mum 'refuses to put seatbelt on child'

Video footage shows the moment police stormed a TUI plane after a woman had "refused to put a seatbelt on her child."

The flight, from Kos to Manchester on Wednesday , June 21, was due to depart at 1.25pm but didn't take off until almost six hours later due to delays. Passengers were "exhausted" and in a "terrible mood."

However there were more delays when the pilot needed to abort landing and circle over the Peak District, when a mum refused to buckle up her child. The woman refused to adhere to the illuminated seatbelt signs and was later escorted off the plane.
