Poisoning the Passengers?

No, not just another review of typical airline food.  Just out from WABC in NYC:

A Newark-bound United Airlines flight is carrying a passenger who reportedly informed the crew that he "poisoned everyone on board." United Flight 116 from Hong Kong is set to land at 2:05 p.m. at Newark Liberty Airport.

The passenger is being restrained by other passengers.

Law enforcement officials in New York and Washington, D.C., are aware of the incident and are responding.  UPDATE:  An FBI spokesman says there is no indication that any passengers had actually been poisoned.
