Incident between flight crew, passenger cause Germany-bound plane to divert to DIA
It sounds like the crew miss-reported the seriousness of the incident.

Kneejerk reaction to some little thing I bet.
Passenger: Stewardess, I asked for a Sprite, not a Coke.
Stewardess: Sorry, sir, but I was sure you said Coke.
Passenger: I didn't stutter (a little too testily).
That stewardess (who has been programmed not to think) goes to the head stewardess (who has been programmed to think only a little) who then goes to the captain who is too interested in covering his ass to make an actual decision goes on the alarm and pandemonium reigns supreme: F-16's scrambled, emergency landing, flight delayed for a day, ALL passengers now pissed off and making demands, etc....
This is why I don't make a scene over anything in public even if it is warranted. You're only minutes or even seconds from having the cops set on you who won't evaluate they'll just arrest and send you up s**t creek without a paddle.

Someone puts something on twitter about a lady punching a flight attendant but nothing on any news site about an arrest for assault or anything else certain. No one seems to have gotten this incident on video, either. Amazing since everyone carries a video campear on their person.
Even if there was an assault thats no reason to scramble F-16's or make an emergency landing. That whole thing had to have been very expensive.

it is when the lady in question claimed to want to bring the plane down because they confiscated her cat.

A passenger said a woman was angry and making threats after the flight crew put her cat in a bathroom. The woman allegedly boarded with the animal in her purse and not in a proper pet carrier.
"She said that she was part of the mafia and that the mafia follows her around the world and that she was able to bring the plane down if that needed to be the case if she couldn't see her cat," said passenger Dashenka Giraldo.
