BOSTON -- He's best known for his talent on the guitar and his hit song Collide, but on Friday, singer Howie Day was in the news for being arrested at Logan Airport.

NewsCenter 5's Pam Cross reported that Day was taken into custody Thursday when American Airlines Flight 2250 from Dallas touched down in Boston.

Passengers said he was being loud, unruly and refused to stay in his seat during the flight.

Day, 24, plead not guilty to interfering with a flight crew Friday. He made no public comments on the case.

"This is an unfortunate matter where Mr. Day took a pill to sleep on a flight from Dallas to come home for the holidays to where he resides in Maine, and he had a couple of drinks. The pill interacted with drinks, and he became intoxicated. He feels very badly if he inconvenienced anybody or caused discomfort," defense attorney Paul Kelly.

Day has been in trouble before. In 2004, Day was charged with locking a woman on a tour bus after she allegedly refused his sexual advances.

Day will return to court in March.
