Incident: Jetblue A320 near Amarillo on Mar 27th 2012, captain incapacitated by panic attack

A Jetblue Airbus A320-200, registration N796JB performing flight B6-191 from New York JFK,NY to Las Vegas,NV (USA), was enroute at FL340 about 55nm north of Amarillo,TX (USA),
when the captain suffered a panic attack and behaved entirely incoherent forcing the first officer to seek assistance by cabin crew and passengers to overpower the captain,
lock him out of the cockpit and have him restrained in the passenger cabin.
Another Jetblue pilot flying as passenger assisted the first officer while diverting to Amarillo for a safe landing about 20 minutes later.
The airline confirmed the flight diverted because of a medical condition with the captain.
Another captain travelling as passenger on the flight joined the first officer in the cockpit.
The ill captain was taken to a local hospital. A replacement aircraft is going to be dispatched to Amarillo to continue the flight.
Passengers reported the captain had visited the bathroom and when returning to the cockpit basically went nuts and screamed about terrorists and bombs on the aircraft knocking the cockpit door.
The first officer locked him out of the cockpit and had him overpowered.
It took six people to sit on the captain to restrain him.
Another pilot on board went to the cockpit to assist the first officer for the diversion.
