| Quote: 'UK Student Behind US Plane Terror Attack' |
The Nigerian suspect caused panic on a plane about to land at Detroit with 278 people aboard when he apparently tried to detonate some sort of bomb.
He was overpowered by passengers after the device failed to ignite properly.
Passenger Syed Jafri said he was seated three rows behind the suspect and saw a glow and smelled smoke.
Then, he said, "a young man behind me jumped on him".
"Next thing you know, there was a lot of panic," he said.
The suspect had reportedly flown from Lagos, Nigeria to Amsterdam's Schipol airport and transferred to Northwest Airlines - which is undergoing a merger with Delta Airlines - for the nine-hour flight to Detroit in an Airbus A330.
Reports named him as Abdul Farouk Abdulmutallab, 23, an engineering student at University College London who had applied for a visa to attend a religious seminar.
He was not on the "no-fly list", but was reportedly known to authorities, and an official said he claimed to have been acting on instructions from al Qaeda.
After being taken into custody, he told authorities that he had used a syringe filled with chemicals to mix with powder taped to his leg, according to senior officials quoted anonymously in the US media.
UCL has been contacted by Sky News but could not immediately comment.
Representative Peter King of New York, the senior Republican on the House of Representatives Homeland Security Committee, said the explosive device was "fairly sophisticated".
"(The device) appears to be different from what we've encountered before," Mr King told Fox News.
"My understanding also is that while (the suspect) is not on a watch list, he definitely has terror connections.
"There is a terrorist nexus leading towards Al Qaeda involving this assailant.
"When it did go off he himself was seriously injured, my understanding is he has third-degree burns.
"This could have been catastrophic."
President Obama has ordered heightened security measures at all US airports.
The incident is reminiscent of a terror attempt by "shoe bomber" Richard Reid, a Briton who tried to destroy a transatlantic flight in 2001 with explosives hidden in his shoes.
He was subdued by other passengers and is serving a life sentence in the US.
