A plane on the way to Ibiza had to be diverted to France after violence broke out on board.

The Ryanair flight from Manchester to Ibiza was forced to land in Toulouse on Sunday after a group of passengers became disruptive, the airline said.

Ryanair said local police were called in to control the situation.

Footage showed one man being escorted off the aircraft as a woman then appeared to start repeatedly attacking another passenger.

In a statement, Ryanair said: “This flight from Manchester to Ibiza diverted to Toulouse after a small group of passengers became disruptive inflight.

"The crew called ahead for police assistance, who met the aircraft upon landing at Toulouse and offloaded 2 passengers before this flight continued to Ibiza.

"We sincerely apologise to passengers for any inconvenience caused as a result of these unruly passengers’ behaviour, which was beyond Ryanair’s control.

"This is now a matter for local police.”
