Three men detained in latest Chinese air rage incidents

Chinese police have detained a man over an attack on an airline check-in clerk that left her lying in a pool of blood and arrested 2 others who charged the cockpit as their flight was taxiing for take-off, the latest in a growing tally of dangerous acts involving Chinese airline travellers. Two men aboard a Hainan Airlines flight Sunday from Datong to Chongqing demanded to be upgraded to business class as their flight was taxiing. When told to remain seated, they fought with a member of the cabin crew and a passenger who tried to help, then pounded on the cockpit door. Meanwhile, Tuesday a passenger at the airport in Shenzhen smashed the head of a Juneyao Airlines clerk with a brass plaque. The man had apparently been enraged after the clerk told him she couldn't print out his friend's travel itinerary without the man's ID card. <br/>
