Passenger Causes Chaos Midflight | Dayton News

A Dallas-to-New Jersey flight turned chaotic when a 67-year-old passenger, Layne Arthur Lundeen, allegedly attacked a seatmate, choked him, and hurled racial and homophobic slurs at a flight attendant. Passengers restrained him with duct tape and flexible handcuffs, forcing the plane to divert to Baltimore. Lundeen was arrested, waived his right to counsel, and released on his own recognizance after his employer fired him for violating company values. The FAA and FBI are now investigating — a stark reminder that even in the sky, safety can descend into sudden, extreme chaos.
