- _______________
Passengers on a Southwest Airlines flight from Nashville to Fort Lauderdale experienced tense moments Friday night after a man’s behavior prompted the crew to divert the plane to Atlanta, where a tactical team then boarded and removed him.
The flight, Southwest Airlines Flight 2094, departed Nashville International Airport and was en route to Florida, when passengers say a man began praying aloud while his cellphone alarm repeatedly sounded.
The plane was diverted to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, where law enforcement officers, with guns drawn, boarded the aircraft and escorted the man off.

After a two-year investigation, Pierce County prosecutors say deputies were justified in fatally shooting Kody Olsen during a 2023 gunfight near Tacoma, calling him an “imminent threat.” Newly released records show Olsen opened fire first, striking a deputy’s gear at close range. Weeks later, investigators linked him to a double murder in Maple Valley tied to a white supremacist prison gang. We break down the findings, the deadly exchange, and the disturbing connections uncovered after his death.
