美國航空(American Airlines)一架原定從達拉斯飛往紐澤西州最大城市的班機,在萬呎高空爆發嚴重肢體衝突。一名男子突然抓狂大罵空服員,甚至動手攻擊鄰座乘客。幸好一名乘客是退役警官,挺身而出將之制伏,其他乘客更合力拿束帶與銀色膠帶將男子「五花大綁」固定在座位上,被綁成木乃伊的照片也在X上瘋傳。

根據《CBS News》報導,這起空中驚魂發生在3日晚間,美國航空班機起飛約2小時後突然爆發混亂。目擊者、退役執法人員梅希亞(Juan Mejia)受訪時指出,當時機艙就像突然被切換開關一樣,瞬間從平靜變成尖叫與混亂,他回頭一看,發現一名男子正用雙手,死死勒住走道座位乘客的脖子進行攻擊。

坐在男子前兩排的梅希亞與另一名乘客見狀,立刻衝上前協助制伏。在空服員提供束帶後,大家合力用束帶以及膠帶,將該名男子的手腕、軀幹甚至頭部繞了數圈,牢牢地將他捆綁在座椅上。現場照片顯示,該男被膠帶死死固定,完全無法動彈。

目擊者透露,空服員最初嘗試安撫該男子情緒,未料男子竟失控飆罵種族歧視用語及恐同言論,隨後更演變成肢體暴力,機組人員為維護全機安全,才決定實施強制手段,並緊急轉降巴爾的摩。

班機迫降後,當地警務人員隨即登機將該名失控男子押解下機,班機才重新起飛前往目的地紐華克。美國航空隨後發表聲明強調,乘客與機組人員的安全是首要考量,對暴力行為零容忍,並感謝機組人員的專業處置與乘客的諒解。

美國聯邦調查局(FBI)證實,該名嫌犯目前已被拘留,詳情正在調查中。
