SANTA ANA (CBSLA) An American Airlines flight from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York on its way to John Wayne Airport in Orange County Wednesday evening diverted to Denver International after a passenger assaulted a female flight attendant.
Mackenzie Rose, another passenger on the flight, told CBSLA that the incident occurred about halfway through the trip, when the plane was over Ohio. The passenger suspected of assaulting the flight attendant was reportedly in first or business class.
The flight attendant, though, did have blood on her after the assault, according to Rose.
I saw her walk by and she had blood on the outside of her mask, which bless her, she was still wearing, she said.
According to the airline, AA Flight 976 was able to taxi safely to the gate where law enforcement removed the passenger. ............(more)

(65,321 posts)With all these incidents, i looked it up a couple weeks ago.
Any interference with flight operations or personnel is a crime, and potentially a felony.
As soon as he became a batterer, it became a felony.
He needs the biggest fine , the longest probation, and a no fly list posting for life.
