Male passenger ‘dies’ aboard flight after he reportedly attempted to open the cabin door mid-air

A male passenger aboard what was said to be a Kenya Airways flight lost his life shortly after he made several attempts to open the cabin door while the aircraft was in the air.

 Nigerians who were aboard the aircraft shared videos showing the moment other passengers were thrown into panic as the man made several attempts to open the door while being prevented by strong men who held him down.

One passenger on board said the man was very aggressive before boarding and should not have been allowed to board the flight.

It is unclear what led to his death or why he made several attempts to disembark midair.

The airline is yet to release an official statement on the incident.
