An American man who hijacked a plane in 1984 and forced it to fly to Cuba has returned to the US. The FBI said William Potts was taken into custody shortly after his charter flight landed in Miami on Wednesday. Potts, now 56, commandeered a commercial flight from New Jersey to Florida with 56 passengers aboard. He was a member of the militant African-American Black Panther movement and expected the Cuban government to give him guerrilla training. Instead, Cuba imprisoned him for 13 years for piracy. He later settled in Havana but was keen to return to the US. bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-24833651
