British police arrested rock star Courtney Love at London’s Heathrow Airport on Tuesday after the cabin crew said she had abused them during a transatlantic flight from Los Angeles.
A spokesman for Virgin Atlantic said the 38-year-old singer and actress had become disruptive and had verbally abused cabin crew during the flight, which had 200 passengers on board. No one was injured.
British police said Love was arrested for disruptive behavior and endangering an aircraft.
In Los Angeles, a publicist for Love issued a news release saying, “There was a brief verbal disagreement during the flight, but this situation has been highly exaggerated.”
