Summary: A man on a United Airlines flight attacked a sleeping passenger, punching him repeatedly until his face was bruised and bloody. The suspect, Everett Chad Nelson, claimed the victim had attacked him earlier, but a witness stated Nelson’s attack lasted about a minute and the victim did not fight back. The FAA is investigating the incident, which is one of over 1,700 unruly passenger incidents reported this year.
The first time I read the headline, I thought it meant that the United staff were attacking the passenger. Thankfully I guess they weren’t a doctor.
Same! “THAT…is why I always fly Delta.”
