[FoxBusiness] United Airlines passenger pummels another flier in ‘vicious,’ bloody attack. Everett Nelson targeted sleeping passenger on United Flight 2247 from San Francisco to Washington, DC, according to reports
A United Airlines passenger let out "blood-curdling screams" during a "vicious" attack by another flier on a San Francisco to Washington, D.C. flight this week, a witness says.
The airline tells FOX Business that "Thanks to the quick action of our crew and customers, one passenger was restrained after becoming physically aggressive toward another customer" onboard United Flight 2247 on Monday.
"He was just very violently and very aggressively just pummeling the guy who was in the window seat who was in front of me and it was vicious. This wasn't like a bar room, I'm going to throw a couple of punches around, I mean this was vicious," Sandhya Gupta told KGO following the incident.
The FBI says the suspect, Everett Nelson, was walking back to his seat after using the plane’s bathroom when he targeted the sleeping victim, according to the station.
"The next thing I know, I just hear these blood-curdling screams," Gupta said.
The attack reportedly ended when another passenger intervened.
"Basically kind of like wrapped this guy in sort of like a hug and the assailant just, it was the weirdest thing, he just went limp," Gupta told KGO. "This doctor was just like trying to stop the bleeding, his face was just a mess. It was awful. There was blood spatter on the window... and all that kind of stuff."
A United Airlines spokesperson told FOX Business that "The flight landed safely and was met by paramedics and local law enforcement."
There were 82 passengers onboard the aircraft and six crew members. The motive for the alleged assault is unclear.
"United Airlines Flight 2247 safely landed at Dulles International Airport in Virginia after the crew reported a passenger disturbance on Monday, Oct. 28 at 1:40 p.m. local time. The Boeing 737-900 departed San Francisco International Airport. The FAA will investigate," the Federal Aviation Administration told FOX Business in a statement.
