SunWing Flight 772 was a flight scheduled to fly from Toronto to Panama City on July 25th, 2014. However, it was forced to turn around due to the behaviour of Ali Shahi, a 25-year old male passenger, who ranted about how he hated Canada and how he wished to 'bomb' it. After being escorted back into Canada by American military jets, it landed at Toronto Pearson International Airport, where Toronto's tactical police boarded the plane on the tarmac, arresting the man.
