Man Charged After Midair Plane Chaos
Description
A 51-year-old man, Juan Gabriel Reyes, faces federal charges after allegedly storming the cockpit, trying to open exit doors mid-flight, and assaulting an off-duty flight attendant aboard a Frontier Airlines plane headed from San Juan to Chicago. The pilot diverted to Miami after Reyes broke free from restraints multiple times—until a passenger jiu-jitsu fighter finally subdued him. Reyes now faces up to 20 years for interfering with crew and a possible year for assault. The flight landed safely, but the chaos underscores how dangerous in-flight disturbances can be.
