Delta passengers and crew are forced to subdue off-duty flight attendant who seized the intercom and 'vowed to bring jet down'
|
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - The man, whose name was not revealed, was on Delta Flight 1730 from Los Angeles to Atlanta when he allegedly took over the intercom
- He then allegedly assaulted two flight attendants and 'was going to take the plane down,' police said
- The plane was forced to land in Oklahoma City on Friday and no passengers or crew were injured
- Other passengers on the packed flight described the man as 'strange' and told the outlet that he was 'dressed quite oddly'
A pack, not a herd: Passenger Benjamin Curlee, 29, recalled another passenger who was seated next to the off-duty flight attendant alleging that the 'very weird' man had even scribbled a note to flight attendants accusing the other passenger of being a hijacker.
Curlee recalled that passenger saying he 'felt very uncomfortable with the guy' who asked 'a lot of very personal questions' such as his name and the spelling, CNN reported.
When the plane was still two hours from its destination, Curlee recalled the captain asking over the intercom for 'all able-bodied men please come to the front of the plane for an emergency.'
'I feared the worst. I prayed that God would protect my family in case I was gone,' Curlee told the outlet.
Curlee and a passenger next to him jumped from their seats to help but did not get because 'basically every man on the plane stepped up and was in the aisle,' he said.
'It was very tense, very adrenaline fueled,' Curlee said.
And testosterone. Bless them all for “hypermasculinity”.
