A flight was delayed out the Los Angeles International Airport on Friday evening after a passenger opened a plane door and jumped out while the aircraft was taxiing before takeoff, according to reports.
The incident was reportedly being investigated as a hijacking attempt, though no more details on that allegation were immediately available.
It also happened on the same day Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly landed at the same airport en route to her home in L.A.'s Brentwood neighborhood after her visit to El Paso, Texas, earlier in the day. The Texas trip was Harris' first visit to the U.S.-Mexico border region since becoming vice president.
The suspect was taken to a hospital for his injuries after allegedly using the plane's automatically inflated emergency slide to leave the aircraft once he opened the door, according to FOX 11 of Los Angeles.

If you’re exiting a plane prior to take off, how is that a hijacking attempt?
“The suspect allegedly tried to open the cockpit door multiple times but eventually opened an exit door, FOX 11 reported. “

Yeah, sounds like he just changed his mind about going to SLC.
It’s amazing how they link this to maybe a threat against Harris.
Maybe Willie Brown gave a really good endorsement...
A meaningless coincidence for sure.
Loki spoiler:
DB Cooper was Loki
Wow I had no idea Kameltoe owns a house in super upscale Brentwood, LA. She probably has precious illegals doing the landscaping and housekeeping over there.
Good thing the slides weren’t armed.
Cool
What is what is what is wrong with travelers today?
They ran out of mcnuggets.
Planes should be redesigned and made first class only and the higher price tickets only available for 5 star travelers.
Harry, formerly known as Prince, flew out of LAX yesterday and landed in London so guessing it wasn’t him.
I just want them to sedate me and toss me in the cargo hold so I can wake up when it’s over.
“...he forgot one essential detail.”
A parachute?
