Twitter was abuzz Wednesday with pictures -- and complaints -- after a dog poo'd in the middle of a Philadelphia-bound flight, forcing an emergency landing.
Yes, you read right -- dog poop forced an emergency landing, according to passengers aboard US Airways Flight 598 from Los Angeles to Philadelphia. Those passengers took to Twitter to document the smelly ordeal.
Passengers said that the large dog went to the bathroom in the plane's aisle as many as three times, making people nearby physically ill.
"The second time after the dog pooped they ran out of paper towels, they didn't have anything else. The pilot comes on the radio, βHey, we have a situation in the back, we're going to have to emergency land,'" passenger Steve McCall told Inside Edition.
The plane was diverted to Kansas City, Missouri, where a cleaning crew cleaned the messes, before eventually making its way to Philadelphia, according to passengers.
The emergency landing wasn't the only headache for those travelers. Before takeoff, Flight 598 was delayed on the tarmac at LAX for two hours for fuel problems.
US Airways spokesman Andrew Christie called the incident a "rare and unfortunate situation."
