BEIJING // A man who tried to set fire to the cabin of a plane with more than 100 people aboard as it was landing in southern China early Sunday was overpowered by fellow passengers and crew, reports said.
Two of the 95 passengers suffered injuries and were taken to hospital, the official Xinhua news agency said.
The incident occurred on Shenzhen Airlines flight ZH9648 from the eastern city of Taizhou as it was landing in Guangzhou early Sunday, it said.
The unidentified passenger was subdued by cabin crew and other passengers after attempting to “damage facilities” and detained, Xinhua said without elaborating.
But a report by the Civil Aviation Resource Net of China, a civil aviation information portal, said the man had “attempted arson” on the plane as it was descending.
Online photos showed burns to a passenger seat as well as a blackened cabin door, suggesting that some kind of fire had been lit.
