A flight from Washington, D.C., to Los Angeles on Thursday was diverted to Oklahoma City after an unruly passenger assaulted a flight attendant, police said.
According to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), "An intoxicated passenger became disruptive, causing a security concern" during a Delta Air Lines flight from Washington to LA. The TSA told FOX Business that during the flight, air marshals "intervened to protect the safety and security of the flight crew and passengers."
The man, identified by police as 35-year-old Ariel Pennington, was arrested once the plane landed in Oklahoma City on charges of disorderly conduct and public drunkenness. The Oklahoma County Detention Center told FOX Business Pennington was released on bond less than 24 hours later.
"Delta applauds the quick action and professionalism of the crew and Federal Air Marshals on Delta flight 342 from Washington, D.C., to Los Angeles, which diverted to Oklahoma City after a customer became unruly," an airline spokesperson told FOX Business.
This incident is part of a "disturbing trend that TSA and its industry and federal partners will not tolerate," a TSA spokesperson said. "These incidents needlessly interrupt travel, delaying flights and other transportation operations across the country."

“These incidents needlessly interrupt travel, delaying flights and other transportation operations across the country.”
They must be talking about airlines firing employees who refused to submit to pfascist mandatory vaccinations.
Where I grew up, they were called "slap jacks". They didn't have wrist straps like this one

So, he got released in Oklahoma City. I wonder how he plans on getting to L.A.? On another Delta flight?
We can only call evil good and good evil before the world snaps. The delusions will come fast and fill the world and even we will be surprised at the speed the world flips.
One way is to quickly place a heavy object next to violent person's head.
No doubt there are other ways that may be useful depending on the circumstances.
Just have them take a breathalizer test before getting on the plane.
Good analogy. The popping is starting. I really think we will be surprised at the speed of the coming disassociation.
I bet he was ‘disrespected’.
I knew before I looked...
He needs 10 years. No parole.
In the title/heading.
Thanks. I kept reading the story, and couldn’t find it there. Didn’t glance back up at the headline like I should have.
Mask mandates and arrogant and rude stewardess dictators.
Ejection ports should be mandatory equipment on commercial airliners.
No prob. I was thinking the same while I was reading it and glanced back to the top and saw it there.

It's also in the body of the article, 3rd paragraph:
