The FBI said Thursday that the man was arrested after the plane landed in Los Angeles and took the man off the plane.
The incident happened Wednesday on a flight from San Jose del Cabo in Mexico to Los Angeles International Airport. Video posted by another passenger showed the man running down the aisle and punching a male flight attendant in the back of the head or neck as the crew member walked in the other direction.
The president of the Association of Professional Flight Attendants, the union representing American’s cabin crews, said the passenger had exhibited “dangerous, life-threatening behavior.”
“Thankfully, the crew and passengers subdued the passenger, and the flight landed safely,” said the union official, Julie Hedrick. “This violent behavior puts the safety of all passengers and crew in jeopardy and must stop.”
Airline spokesman Curtis Blessing said American has banned the man from ever traveling on the airline. He said American was helping law enforcement investigate the incident.

Where is the no fly list when you need it
If the savage who punched Rudy Giuliani is now being left off the hook, there is no reason why this savage shouldn’t also be left off the hook.
WHY COULDNT HE USE THE BATHROOM?
He was a Chasid upset the flight attendant wouldn’t make the untsnius women cover themselves with blankets.
I don’t see any mention of the persons religion, race or color in the article!
Have we reached a great level & removed all bias from reporting?!
No one should condone violence.
But i wonder how many people who travel can stand the attitude of flight attendants especial during and after the pandemic.
Many many people have experienced absolute evilness and Anti-Semitic incidents.
Having said, seems like the Frum community is getting more and more violent by the day.
No,Moster? all these crimes are done by the Frum uneducated parasites.
