Here's what we know about Czech model Zaneta Hucikova: she loves Donald Trump, she loves cats, and she caused an airplane with 150 people on board to make an emergency landing in Denver this week.

Hucikova was taken off the flight once it landed and arrested for allegedly screaming, hitting a flight attendant and demanding access to her "comfort cat," which crew members had placed in the bathroom for some reason, according to the Daily Mail.

The plane, flying from Las Vegas to Germany, was diverted to Denver and was escorted there by two fighter jets from a nearby base. That extra security was probably because of Hucikova's comments, according to a passenger who spoke to WLS-TV:

"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.

Hucikova isn't being charged with a crime over the airplane incident, but she is being detained by immigration officials in Denver over an issue with her visa, CBS Denver reported.
