Police called to airport for 'unruly child'
PORTLAND, Ore. -- Crew members on a Sky West flight contacted PDX Airport authorities Tuesday night, to report some unruly passengers on the plane.
"Police were asked to meet a plane because there was a family onboard with what the flight crew called 'an unruly child,'" said airport spokesman Steve Johnson.
Authorities were waiting as the family of four got off the flight coming from Long Beach, California. Crew members say the two children onboard, ages eight and three, would not stay in their seats during take-off and landing.
"No charges were filed," Johnson said, "but it was disruptive."

The crew of a Skywest-operated Alaska Airlines plane asked Port of Portland police to meet their incoming flight from Long Beach, Calif., after two young children refused to stay in their seats and buckle their seat belts.
Airline spokeswoman Marianne Lindsey says port police talked with the family of two adults and two children, aged 3 and 8, after the flight landed Tuesday night at Portland International Airport. Lindsey says an Alaska Airlines supervisor then talked to the family about the need to comply with federal air regulations that children must remain buckled in their seats for safety.
