CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Students from the United Arab Emirates were taken off a Thanksgiving Day flight from Charlotte to Washington and rescreened by security, causing the flight to be delayed for more than four hours.

Three of the students told WJLA-TV in Washington (http://wj.la/vWN9fl ) they were pulled from the plane and questioned about the purpose of their trip and whether they had military training. They now want an apology.
