A passenger on the American Airlines flight that caught fire last month after diverting to Denver International Airport has filed a lawsuit against the airline.

According to a new lawsuit, it claims American Airlines was negligent during the fire of Flight 1006​ at DIA in March.

The flight was en route from Colorado Springs to Dallas-Fort Worth when it was diverted to Denver on March 13.

A United Airlines flight bound for Newark, New Jersey, was diverted to Washington Dulles International Airport on Thursday after a fire broke out in the plane's cabin.
