Norwalk man arrested for groping, attacking flight attendants
MIAMI, FL – A Norwalk man faces three counts of battery after he allegedly inappropriately touched two female flight attendants and punched a male flight attendant, during a flight.
According to Fox News, police say Maxwell Berry, 22, ordered two alcoholic beverages from a flight attendant and, when he finished his drinks, began acting inappropriately with the flight attendants.
A video shows a flight attendant allegedly duct-taping Berry down to his seat, after the incidents.
The incident took place on a July 31 Frontier Airlines flight from Philadelphia to Miami.
In a statement, Frontier Airlines said, “During a flight from Philadelphia to Miami on July 31, a passenger made inappropriate physical contact with a flight attendant and subsequently physically assaulted another flight attendant. As a result, the passenger needed to be restrained until the flight landed in Miami and law enforcement arrived. The flight attendants will be, as required in such circumstances, relieved of flying pending completion of investigation of the events.”
