Francisco Severo Torres, 33, of Leominster, Mass., is accused of trying to stab a flight attendant three times in the neck with a broken metal spoon.
BOSTON, Massachusetts — A man on a United Airlines flight Sunday from Los Angeles to Boston tried to open the emergency door to the plane, then attempted to stab a flight attendant multiple times, federal authorities say.
A news release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office says the trouble began about 45 minutes before the plane landed in Boston. Prosecutors say an alarm went off in the cockpit showing that a side door between the first class and coach sections of the plane had been “disarmed.” A flight attendant checked the door and noticed the handle had been moved out of its fully locked position and the emergency slide arming lever had been moved to the “disarmed” position.
Torres is accused of getting out of his seat moments later and approaching two flight attendants who were standing in the aisle. Authorities say Torres, armed with a broken metal spoon, tried to stab one of the attendants three times in the neck. Other passengers and crew members tackled Torres and restrained him, prosecutors say.
