(CNN) -- Southwest Airlines confirmed Wednesday that it called the cops on a passenger who turned his phone on too soon during a flight to El Paso, Texas.
The passenger, identified only as a male, turned his phone on as his Southwest flight was descending for landing at El Paso on Monday evening, Southwest said in a statement.
The crew apparently asked the passenger to turn off his device, but "the customer did not comply, and we had the El Paso authorities meet the aircraft upon arrival," the statement said.
The airline did not offer further details about the incident or what happened to the passenger. The El Paso Police Department referred calls to the FBI office in El Paso. That office's public information officer did not immediately return calls Wednesday.
CNN's Matthew Carey contributed to this report.
