During the morning of May 29, Weibo users onboard United Airlines flight UA851 from Chicago to Beijing reported that their plane had been diverted to Alaska due to a woman trying to hang herself inside the plane’s bathroom.

The woman, who is currently unidentified, was described as around 40 years old and of Asian heritage. According to various netizens, prior to the incident the woman was seen talking with a man sitting next to her who was ignoring her. It is unknown whether or not these two know each other or what was said between them.

Later that evening, the flight was redirected to San Francisco where it prepared to depart for Beijing once more.
