The FBI was able to get a United Airlines flight to turn around mid-flight from Washington Dulles International Airport to Beijing to arrest a passenger accused of parental kidnapping, the Washington Post reports.
The mother, Wenking Liu, was arrested Thursday evening at Dulles International Airport, where the plan returned.
Liu was charged with unlawfully attempting to remover her son from the U.S. with intent to obstruct the lawful exercise of parental rights.
The boy’s father reported the kidnapping, prompting agents to urge the airline to turn the flight around.
