A Scandinavian Airlines (SAS) flight was forced to make an emergency landing on Wednesday after a live mouse was found in a passenger's meal.
The flight left Norwegian capital Oslo bound for Malaga in Spain, before being diverted to Copenhagen, Denmark.

Passengers on the flight were later flown to Malaga on a different aircraft, BBC News reports.
"This is something that happens extremely rarely," airline spokesperson Oystein Schmidt told the AFP news agency.
"We have established procedures for such situations, which also include a review with our suppliers to ensure this does not happen again."
Passenger Jarle Borrestad told BBC News that the woman sitting next to him on the flight opened a box of food which the mouse escaped from.
