Neurotic boomer triggers terror scare

"A 59-year-old Vermont woman faced federal charges Thursday for interfering with a flight crew, after her outburst on a London-to-Washington flight prompted a massive security scare and raised questions about the thoroughness of passenger screening. Catherine Mayo, of Braintree, Vt., muttered incoherently, occasionally saying 'Pakistan,' as she paced up and down the aisle of United Flight 923 on Wednesday, passengers said. She was eventually tackled by two plainclothes men and flight attendants, who threw her to the ground and handcuffed her, passengers said."
