Passengers subdue dangerous foreigner on American Airlines flight

[The Trump Administration]

​

A group of passengers on board an American Airlines flight restrained and tied up a passenger with duct tape after he allegedly tried to open an aircraft door mid-flight.

The incident happened on American Airlines flight 1915 from Milwaukee to Dallas-Fort Worth.

The foreign passenger went up to a flight attendant in the front galley of the aircraft and made a comment about “needing to exit the aircraft now,” according to a Dallas Fort-Worth International Airport Department of Public Safety report.

The flight attendant told authorities the passenger’s voice got louder and he became more agitated. She made a call to the rear flight attendant to request more people in the front and also made a hand gesture to passengers near her indicating she needed assistance.

She then placed herself between the left, first entry door on the aircraft and the passenger, and he rushed towards her and the door. He jumped on top of her in his effort to access the cabin door, injuring her left wrist and neck, the report said.

One of the passengers, Doug McCright, bear hugged the unruly passenger in an attempt to pull him off of her. Passenger Charlie Boris also jumped into help.

Boris sprung into action by pinning the man’s legs down with pressure and he said duct tape was used to subdue the male foreigner.

When the plane landed at Dallas Fort-Worth International Airport, officers said they arrived to find “a male passenger on board who was secured and restrained with tape.”

The passenger was seen lying on his stomach with his hands behind his back bound as well as his ankles with duct tape, the report said.

The passenger was transported for evaluation. The investigation is ongoing.

American Airlines said that the restraint tape used in the incident is included in an onboard kit as a safety measure.

The word "foreigner" isn't in the article.

Canadians are foreigners.

Legina isn't very good at this. I think his mind is going the way of his balls. LOL

FWIW, when an airliner is pressurized, the plug doors can't be opened.

Canadians are foreigners.

But not designated as such in the article.

He was freaking out at being in a metal tube, dear, not because he was a Canadian terrorist. Try pulling your head out of your ass for a change, Legina.

I fixed it.

Did you pull your head out of your ass first, Legina?

The focus of the folks who will argue with TTA (Legion) simply because they are Legion is on whether Canadians are foreigners? This isn't really a political thing here, it seems you object simply to object.

No, it's about changing the actual printed article to imply that the passenger, aka "dangerous foreigner" may have been planning to hijack the plane.

Also, Legion accepts that I'm his gadfly.

Another alt right terrorist... This time a Canadian alt right terrorist.

Do you have any idea what would have happened if this loon had opened the door, Walter?

Instant terror, Walter.

Poor Walter.

Sounds to me like the MAGAS on here are trying to make it sound like he was an Illegal from Mexico or some place like that.
Guess that went bad for them.

 

[Matt Dillon]

I've got to get oot of here!
Dude had an attack.
Hopefully they don't get charged for restraining him.

Instant terror, Walter.

It appears that the plane was at cruising altitude, over 10,000 feet, so what happens if he tries to open the door? The alt right loser would be very disappointed. You cannot open a plane door unless there is higher pressure on the outside.

I know you assume that plane doors are easily opened, but they really are not.

They also didn't give his name or skin color so you know for a fact he isn't white.

Much of the alt right considers most Americans foreigners, especially Blacks, Jews, and Hispanics. Meanwhile, they consider white alt right Canadians to be not foreigners.

This poor trump supporter had a nervous breakdown on a plane. They do not seem to do well in tight places, and when told they cannot express themselves loudly. I am surprised it does not happen more often.

I ever tell you about the Texas state senator's son that tried to steal my business class seat? Basically the same problem.

Y O U would think that. I wouldn't.

He's an elderly Canadian national male.

Not too many white foreigners that are "Trump Supporters"...

trump could not get a plurality of the vote in places like Canada, Australia, and Israel, but he could get a double digit percent of the vote. There are some fanatical alt right Canadians.
