British anti-terrorism detectives escorted a man from a plane after a taxi driver had earlier become suspicious when he 
started singing along to a track by punk band The Clash, police said on Wednesday.

Detectives halted the London-bound flight at Durham Tees Valley Airport in northern England and Harraj Mann, 24, was 
taken off.

The taxi driver had become worried on the way to the airport because Mann had been singing along to The Clash’s 1979 
anthem “London Calling,” which features the lyrics “Now war is declared -- and battle come down” while other lines warn 
of a “meltdown expected.”
