Boise police Lt. Kent Lipple told The Idaho Statesman that Russell Miller, 68, was upset with a 15-year-old passenger who would not turn off his phone despite directions from the crew of a Southwest Airlines flight coming in from Las Vegas Tuesday night.

Miller was booked into the Ada County Jail on a misdemeanor battery charge. "The suspect decided to act on his own accord and he is going to spend some time in jail," Lipple said.
