Drunk Man Gets Arrested After Obnoxious Behavior on Flight

A day in the life of a police officer...
On September 6, 2021, Salt Lake City Police Department received information about an intoxicated passenger onboard an American Airline flight. The man reportedly was growling and yelling racist, sexist, and belligerent comments at other passengers. He even demanded to get off the flight although it was still 30,000+ feet in the air. After the flight landed safely, police officers boarded the plane.

@@DocKro23 They could, what I meant is that based off of 9:44 part of this video clip, it seems as if there is a much bigger problem than the guy just being "drunk". You are right, it could be both, we have no idea, I just don't think it's only him being drunk that's the issue here.

[@SuddenUpdraft]

@@DocKro23 I think driving while baked on weed is safer than while drunk. It’s ridiculous that booze is legal and marijuana isn’t. If it was regulated like alcohol and sold legally, a huge amount of the crime associated with it would vanish. Frankly I hate the stuff and the smell makes me sick. But eliminating all the petty crime, the violence, and the drain on our prison and law enforcement resources would make a massive, and in my opinion, very positive change.

As the person above correctly stated, you absolutely can manage to board a plane drunk. He might also have mental issues which worsened the behaivor from his alcohol use. However, as a paramedic for 6 years, I can't count how many instances I've witnessed of behavior just like this that when tested, was proven to be solely alcohol related in terms of substances taken by that individual. For whatever reason, people do not like to put alcohol on the same pedestal as drugs which is why so many comments here are so adamant to claim this was more than alcohol. Alcohol was solely responsible for the vast majority of behavior such as this that I witnessed during those 6 years.
