AN UNRULY PAX; ALLEGEDLY ON DRUGS AND POSSIBLY INTOXICATED; WAS ARRESTED AT DEST ARPT BY POLICE.

Narrative

ON ADVICE FROM MY COMPANY'S LEGAL DEPT; I AM MAKING THIS RPT ABOUT AN UNRULY PAX ABOARD A SCHEDULED PAX FLT. WHEN THIS PAX BOARDED; A FLT ATTENDANT CAME TO THE COCKPIT AND SAID THAT HE APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN DRINKING. ALSO; THE PAX NEXT TO HIM WAS SAID TO HAVE BEEN DRINKING (OR INTOXICATED SOMEHOW). THE UNRULY PAX WAS SUSPECTED OF SMOKING WHILE THE ACFT WAS ON THE GND. THE CAPT MADE A PA STATING THAT HE WOULD NOT TOLERATE SMOKING. AFTER TKOF; THIS SAME PAX WAS RPTED TO BE SWEATY AND MORE INTOXICATED. HE WAS RPTED TO BE SNORTING A SUBSTANCE. A FLT ATTENDANT BROUGHT IT TO THE COCKPIT; A PACKET MADE OF PAPER THAT THIS PAX WANTED TO SHARE WITH ANOTHER PAX. IT WAS OBVIOUSLY A DRUG PACKET. POLICE MET THE FLT ON ARR. THE PAX WAS ARRESTED AFTER QUESTIONING. BEFORE LEAVING THE GATE; WE MAY NOT HAVE HAD GNDS FOR REMOVING THIS PAX. BUT I THINK A FLT DECK CREW MEMBER COULD HAVE ASSESSED THE PAX BEFORE DEP. WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL IN THIS MATTER BECAUSE OF PREDATORY CIVIL SUITS. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 372757: SLIGHTLY DISRUPTIVE PAX ON GND; SOMEWHAT DISRUPTIVE INFLT; IE; HE (A WHILE MALE APPROX 6 FT; 180 LBS) WAS USING AN ALLEGED CTLED SUBSTANCE. AFTER USING (SNORTING UP HIS NOSE) HE WOULD THROW THE USED PACKETS OVER THE SEAT IN FRONT OF HIM; CAUSING THE PAX IN FRONT OF HIM TO MOVE. HE ALSO GAVE A PACKET OF SAID SUBSTANCE TO PAX NEXT TO HIM TO ENJOY; BUT THAT PAX GAVE IT TO A CABIN ATTENDANT; WHO IN TURN BROUGHT IT TO THE COCKPIT. USED PHONE PATCH; CALLED MGMNT AND LEGAL FOR ADVISE. THIS PROB WAS A LARGE DISTR TO FLT. WE WERE LUCKY THIS TIME!
