Shannon Airport Diversion: 19-Year-Old Faces Assault Charges A 19-year-old man named Jay Dalziel appeared in Ennis District Court on Thursday afternoon, charged with two counts of assault causing harm. The alleged assaults took place on board a Glasgow-Tenerife flight that was diverted to Shannon Airport on Wednesday, June 12. Dalziel, from Cornelia Street in Motherwell, Scotland, is accused of perpetrating “serious assaults” against two passengers during the flight. The alleged incidents resulted in the aircraft’s diversion to Shannon Airport, where Dalziel was arrested. According to court documents, the assaults occurred on board flight EZY1902, a Ryanair service that departed from Glasgow International Airport at approximately 10:40 a.m. local time. The plane was scheduled to land in Tenerife, Spain, at 2:10 p.m., but was forced to divert to Shannon at around 1:30 p.m. due to the alleged disruptive behavior of a passenger. At Shannon Airport, Dalziel was taken into custody by Gardaí, the Irish police force. He was initially detained at Ennis Garda Station and later brought before Ennis District Court.
