LOS ANGELES (AP) — FBI agents arrested a British citizen after he allegedly hit a flight attendant while aboard a jet flying from Sydney to Los Angeles.
Fraser Alexander Thomas Lonie, 34, was taken into custody Wednesday for investigation of interference with flight crew members. Authorities said he appeared to be intoxicated during the United Airlines flight.
FBI agents accuse Lonie of shoving the flight attendant and hitting him in the mouth while he was trying to escort Lonie back to his seat.
