Narrative

A PAX CAME TO THE BACK OF THE ACFT TO TELL US THE 'MAN SEATED IN XX TOOK ALL OF HIS CLOTHES OFF AND IS JUST SITTING THERE.' THE #1 FLT ATTENDANT WENT TO CHK OUT THE SIT. HE THEN WENT TO THE COCKPIT TO ADVISE THEM. WHEN ACFT LANDED; THE POLICE CAME ON AND MADE THE PAX PUT HIS PANTS ON; TOOK HIM ONTO THE JET BRIDGE AND HANDCUFFED HIM. (WHILE PAX WAS SEATED/NAKED HE WAS READING A BIBLE AND LISTENING TO MUSIC.) CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: THE RPTR STATED THAT THE MAN NEVER GOT OUT OF HIS SEAT THE WHOLE TIME; UNTIL THE POLICE FORCED HIM TO GET UP ON ARR IN DALLAS; WHERE THEY HANDCUFFED HIM AND GOT HIS PANTS BACK ON. WHEN THE PURSER ASKED HIM IF HE HAD THE RIGHT SEAT AND ASKED WHAT HIS NAME WAS; HE SANG HIS NAME BACK; INSTEAD OF STATING IT. A WOMAN SITTING IN THE WINDOW SEAT OF THE SAME ROW; CRAWLED OVER THE BACK OF THE SEATS TO GET TO HER FRIENDS; WHO SERE SITTING BEHIND HER. OTHER THAN THAT; THE REST OF THE PAX CONSIDERED IT A BIG JOKE; AND ACTUALLY CONSIDERED THEMSELVES LUCKY TO HAVE HAD SUCH A MEMORABLE FLT. THE RPTR FOUND OUT FROM ONE OF THE MAN'S CO-WORKERS THAT HE WAS GOING TO CABO SAN LUCAS FOR A CONVENTION. THE MAN; EVIDENTLY; HAD HAD A NERVOUS BREAKDOWN AFTER HIS WIFE LEFT HIM AND HIS KIDS. THE RPTR HEARD THAT THE POLICE TOOK HIM TO A MENTAL HOSPITAL.
