Pooping dog forces flight to make emergency landing

A cross-country U.S. Airways flight turned crappy when a large dog reportedly number two'ed repeatedly in the aisle, forcing the plane to make an emergency landing. Passengers on flight 598 from Los Angeles to Philadelphia started complaining when the pooch defecated as many as three times. The smell caused several people to vomit and dry-heave.

"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, 'Hey, we have a situation in the back, we're going to have to emergency land,'" a passenger told Inside Edition. The plane landed in Kansas City so crews could clean up the mess.

The airline has not yet returned NBC 10's request for comment.
