Flight Attendant Forced To Smash Wine Bottle Over The Head Of Violent Passenger

A 23-year-old man from Florida has been charged

An FBI report has detailed a flight from hell, which saw a passenger have two bottles of wine smashed over his head.

The reason why?

According to The Sydney Morning Herald, the passenger had fought with other passengers during the Delta Air Lines flight from Seattle to Beijing. 23-year-old Joseph Hudek had even attempted to open the plane’s exit door.

A fast-thinking air steward smashed two bottles of wine over Mr Hudek’s head breaking at least one of them, The Independent repots.

During the flight, Mr Hudek allegedly punched a flight attendant twice in the face and struck a passenger in the head with a dessert wine bottle.

The Florida man has been charged with interfering with a flight crew.

“Hudek did not seem impacted by the breaking of a full litre red wine bottle over his head, and instead shouted, ‘Do you know who I am?’,” FBI special agent Caryn Highley wrote in a probable cause statement.
