FERNDALE, Mich., May 28 -- A Michigan woman who said she was left sleeping on a plane for 4 hours after it landed in Philadelphia is suing United Airlines, her attorney said.

Geoffrey Fieger said his client, Ginger McGuire, 36, of Ferndale, is suing for false imprisonment, infliction of emotional distress and negligence.

McGuire said she was left on the locked plane at Philadelphia International Airport after it arrived from Washington's Dulles International Airport shortly before 12:30 a.m. Wednesday, The Detroit Free Press reported Friday.

CNN said United and Trans States Airlines, the carrier that operated the flight, were investigating.

Fieger said McGuire was eventually discovered by a cleaning crew, but the crew locked her back in the plane and called for federal agents to question her.

"We are working closely with our partner, Trans States Airlines, to investigate the cause and remedy the situation with the customer," United Airlines spokeswoman Sarah Massier said.

Trans States Airlines officials could not be reached for comment, the Free Press said.
