Passengers and crew members on an American Airlines flight restrained a passenger who was caught on video slugging a flight attendant.
Video shared on social media shows a man in an orange, tropical print shirt suddenly run up and punch the flight attendant in the back of the head on the Wednesday flight from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to Los Angeles.
It came just after the male flight attendant confronted the man and asked: “Are you threatening me?” As the flight attendant turned and walked toward the front of the plane, the video shows the man charging toward him, throwing a punch at the back of the flight attendant’s head and then retreating to the back of the plane.
