   Maui SUV fire delays Hawaii air traffic   
      
      
   HONOLULU, March 1 (UPI) -- Passengers who spent an   
   unscheduled night in Maui due to a bizarre vehicle fire   
   at the island's airport were arranging travel back to   
   the Mainland Monday.   
      
   The airport was closed for much of Sunday after a local   
   man drove his Dodge Durango into the open-air ticket   
   lobby of Kahului Airport and set the back seat of the   
   SUV on fire.   
      
   Security personnel tackled the 52-year-old man as   
   frightened passengers hustled out of the building and   
   fire sprinklers soaked the lobby.   
      
   Police and federal agents were questioning the man and   
   did not consider it to be related to terrorism. The   
   Honolulu Advertiser said witnesses reported hearing the   
   man yelling that he wanted to die.   
      
   Maui air traffic was back to normal Monday although the   
   Federal Aviation Administration noted weather-related   
   delays at San Francisco and Chicago's O'Hare.
