Narrative

ABOUT 45-50 MINS AFTER TKOF WE HAD A PAX WHO WAS SLEEPING WAKE UP SCREAMING AND POINTING AT NO ONE. HE LOCKED HIMSELF IN THE AFT LAVATORY AND STARTED TO BANG ON THE WALLS AND CONTINUED TO SCREAM. I OPENED THE DOOR AND TOLD HIM HIS BEHAVIOR WAS NOT APPROPRIATE NOR WOULD IT BE TOLERATED. HE TOLD ME TO GO AWAY OR HE WOULD KILL ME. THE CREW FIGURED HE WAS DRUNK AND SEARCHED HIS BAGS WHERE WE FOUND A BIG BOTTLE OF SOUTHERN COMFORT. (HE WAS NOT SERVED LIQUOR ON BOARD.) WE FINALLY GOT HIM OUT OF THE BATHROOM. WE WERE FEARFUL HE WOULD HURT HIMSELF IN THERE. WE HAD A MINISTER WHO ASKED TO HELP BECAUSE HE WAS CRYING AND UPSET ABOUT SOMETHING. THE PAX OVER THE NEXT HR BECAME MORE BELLIGERENT AND THEN VIOLENT. THE PAX HIT BOTH MYSELF AND THE #3 FLT ATTENDANT THREATENING TO KILL US SEVERAL TIMES. THE FO HELPED US TO RESTRAIN THE PAX. HE RECEIVED SIMILAR THREATS AND THE PAX SPIT DIRECTLY INTO HIS EYE. THE MINISTER WHO HELPED US WAS PUNCHED IN THE FACE; AGAIN WITH THE THREATS. BECAUSE OF THE TIME OF NIGHT BOTH MYSELF AND THE #3 WERE ABLE TO SPEND TIME TRYING TO CONTAIN THIS PAX. WE BOTH HAD TO SUSPEND OUR NORMAL DUTIES INCLUDING OUR NORMAL JUMP SEATS FOR LNDG. I FEEL OTHER PAX WERE UPSET AND FEARFUL. WE WERE MET BY CHICAGO POLICE AND THE PAX WAS REMOVED. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: RPTR STATES THAT A COMPANY RPT WAS FILED. THE FO PRESSED CHARGES AND SHE GAVE A WITNESS STATEMENT FOR HIS COURT APPEARANCE. THE FBI HAS INTERVIEWED HER AND IT TURNS OUT THAT THE PAX WAS AWOL FROM THE MIL. THERE APPEARS TO BE NO FAA INVOLVEMENT.
