A Massachusetts man was arrested for allegedly stabbing a flight attendant in the neck with a broken metal spoon three times during a flight from Los Angeles to Boston on Monday, the Justice Department says.

Francisco Severo Torres, 33, faces one charge of interference and attempted interference with flight crew members and attendants using a dangerous weapon. Torres was arrested at Boston Logan International Airport Monday and will remain detained pending a hearing set for Thursday.

“According to court documents, the flight attendant then notified the captain that they believed Torres posed a threat to the aircraft and that the captain needed to land the aircraft as soon as possible,” the Justice Department said. Soon after, Torres allegedly got out of his seat, mouthing something, before thrusting “towards one of the flight attendants in a stabbing motion with a broken metal spoon, hitting the flight attendant on the neck area three times,” the Justice Department said.

Blocking MSM sources, such as this helps to demonetize them … but you will still be able to see their nonsense. also follow RealWalkAway jordanbpeterson jordanbpeterson russelbrand rustyrockets and also me if you’d like🙂 have a nice day🙋‍♀️

The problems that exist in movies like Parasite, by Bong Joon-ho, cannot be solved by changing a government or culturizing the people. And also, no group has the ability to solve these problems. But ThePromisedSaviour can save all the people of the world from all problems

Attempted murder. Lock him up for 50 years.

Where is the picture of the criminal?

And he was trying to open the cabin doors endangering everyone…So why didn’t every able bodied man on that flight beat him damn near, if not to death.

Any news on the home grown terrorists burning down the 1st responder training center in Atlanta

Hopefully they don’t charge the people who took him down with racisms.

The mental health of this country is becoming more volatile

The whole people of the Chinese Communist Party applaud the US Speaker of the House of Representatives to follow Tsai Ing-wen’s instructions and surrender and dare not enter Taiwan! This is a great victory for the CCP! Sad!

Should have pushed him out

Science proves we are developed from animals so it is our sacred duty to keep this instinct up the proud followers of our ancient ancestors

Clearly a MENTAL HEALTH issue...does tsa provide them? Frightening!!

This is pure mdness tbh. He was going to put people's life in danger because of what's absolutely nothing

They just had to open the door and throw him out the plane... problem solved.

Masshole

Memphis Zoo, what u have done to panda Yaya n Lele is SHAMEFUL n DISGUSTING!!! All ur behaviors!! All lies!!! u don’t treat our pandas well,u don’t deserve them!! What the hell Hell Zoo!!!!

The He’ll

Why was no air marshall on a cross-country flight?

Now on 'No Fly List' . Soon to be in prison on the 'No SPRY List' .

It’s hard to fly anywhere when you’re in jail. This person is a criminal.

Please help me! My name is Lin donglong, an employee of China telecom fuzhou branch. Company manager huang fei (communist party of China) organized the leadership of the gang of evil forces brutal persecution: surveillance location, insult,abuse, framed to take nude photos of me

And where were the marshals Majority of flights have plain clothes people flying armed.

😱. I hope the flight attendant is ok. That's insane.

Peace be upon you, if the Pakistan Army goes to the borders and does its work, Pakistan will not be protected.

🙄😥OMG🙈

People just don’t have the class their grand parents had

So the flight attendant is okay?

We can assume this is a lie until it is confirmed by a reputable source. CNN IS NOT A NEWS SOURCE , it is democrat propaganda

Man when they hit him with those terrorism charges he will get a football number type sentence. 35-40 years

I hate when they say “allegedly” 🙄🙄

He was upset...

What is going on in the air?!!! 😭

For the record, this is exactly what happened allegedly off the record with unnamed sources actual footage and records indicate this was all allegedly fact

Americans are no longer normal human beings.

For many weeks Antifa rioters assaulted police, tried to burn down Federal buildings, caused billions in damages. These Democrat proxies in a international and multi state conspiracy have attacked and attempted murder of police in GA and the leftist media, and FBI ignores it.

100 million American users? Go on YouTube type in TikTok Google your data by 60 minutes Chinese own tik Tok is stealing your data and much more especially naive young people need to watch this video you won't believe what they're doing worse then CNN or MSNBC wow

lira12_joy The criminal is a Caucasian otherwise you would have published their picture... You have been at the helm of reporting news and your reputation of bias precedes you, admit it you are a doormat now you don't have credibility just retire CNN!

Person like this should get his wish, WITH ASSISTANCE

Dayum

👀 👀👀👀👀

And people were upset at the idea of changing over to plastic ware? Some people need to have reasons explained to them very s.l.o.w.l.y.🧠

I hope the flight attendant is doing well.

I feel like stabbing someone in the neck with a spoon shank should be called attempted murder.

A democrat I assume…they are like that.

Sick people out there. Its sad :-(

TronCarterNLU monitoring?

What the hell is wrong with these people?

Did you know home grown terrorists burned down the police training center in Atlanta

Must have been a minority because otherwise it would have read 'A White Massachusetts man...'

HEY MR. PRESIDENT! WHY DO YOU OFFER GRANTS THAT WILL FINE PEOPLE FOR APPLYING? THAT SET UP COSTED US 50 GRAND FOR GRANTS TO GET NONE AND FINED ON TOP OF THAT!

Did you post this obituary for John Fedderman?

if we ban spoons we can take out stabbing and obesity altogether

Go ahead and ask the president why he is a crook. He offers grants that fine you for applying. And waits until you pay for them first. Then he can take it all away. Dept of justice says this is fair.

Stabbing someone in the neck doesn't get an attempted murder charge?

I assume he was flying back home.

Wow this world

I would have thought it would have been taken away after the first stabbing, let alone three!

Bidens America getting more dangerous everyday!

Japan colonized Korea for 40 years, used teenage girls as sex slaves, recruited teenagers into suicide planes, and refused to apologize for war crimes such as forced labor. Do Britain and America support Japan's act of imperialist aggression and help it rearm? Why?

United Airlines says it has banned Torres from flying on future flights following this incident.

Mondays, am I right?!?!?!

The government should pass legislation banning silverware.

He just has to change his pronoun and he'll be free in no time.

Excuse me!!!!!!

It is rumored but not confirmed that the man had watched the Celtics blow a 28 point lead at home against the Knicks before his inner voice told him to jump out of the plane.

It wouldn't have been a news if he used gun.

Why didn't they restrain him after the first time?

Yeah, how about ALL airlines ban this guy going forward. He can find ways to off himself that doesn’t harm hundreds of other people.

is the flight attendant ok

Immigration status please.

Thank God this Trump supporter didn't have a gun.

Geez… seems like the whole damn world is going insane!

We better wake up or it’s all gonna be over

Here we go, eat with your hands from now on.

I saw the airline has banned him... shouldn't he be on the fucking no fly list now?

Most surprising part of this… that it wasn’t a Florida man.

This is a violent country, and it is becoming more and more violent every day, in every sector of a society.

David Hogg will be like “it’s still the guns”.

Well there goes utensils on flights

Your cousin 🎶 from Bos-ton 🎶

'one charge of interference and attempted interference with flight crew members and attendants using a dangerous weapon.' That's it? What are the penalties? Sounds like a slap on the wrist if convicted. This guy needs some serious prison time.

Why'd it happen? What's the story behind the story? And that's exactly what needs to be told. Because it's a real terrible truth and everyone already really knows it! It still needs to matter. Because it's all fake unless you have some people with the courage to face that truth.

Anyone else confused by 'stabbed three times in the neck' and 'no reported injuries' in the same article?

“United Airlines says it has banned Torres from flying on future flights following this incident.” Oh you think!?!?!? GREAT IDEA

This is not normal. 💉

Guy is going on the no-fly list regardless of the ban.

Why was he not charged with several counts of attempted murder? Stabbed a flight attendant. And if somehow he gets the emergency door open who knows what happens.

How do you use the term “allegedly” when this is exactly what happened?

Sounds like a magat insurrectionist

I bet it was Republican

Whats the context? Was the attacked a MAGA republican? Wouldnt surprise me…

Omg. My daughter is a flight attendant. Scary how crazy people are these days 😳

Insane

We need common sense spoon control!

We are going to need a psychiatric evaluation signed off my a doctor every time we want to fly. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Ugly American

Well, it seems that a White red neck under pressure 😂, but seriously; people are already on edge flying when you’re in an uncomfortable tube 30k feet in the air. What is wrong with people?!, people have gone crazy these days.

Steak was overcooked.

Jesus Mary and Joseph. Did she survive? What in the world has gotten into? No more metal utensils on airplanes.

Plastic sporks from now on...thanks, buddy...

That’s quite specific for being “allegedly.” Such a weak journalism crutch.

Oh my god Attempted murder!

How crucial you have to be to do something like this…?

When will people realize there is a massive mental health crisis in this country? This. Is. Not. Normal.

Damn.... Say goodbye to Spoons on Planes.

They should have a PSA on the flight that opening one of the doors in flight is literally impossible

Damn

Jesus Mary and Joseph did she survived

100% maga

What a fucking lunatic.

Y’all will be eating with your hands from now on

Probably a Sox fan.

OMG!

Toxic train rides for everyone.

Lock This Bastard Up For Life!😡

There goes metal utensils for meals on flights. Usually only first class but it'll be gone now. Can't have nice things

WTF IS WRONG PEOPLE

So many questions. Why did he want to open the emergency exit? Was he delirious / literally out of his mind? Wtf happened there? Can you imagine being on the flight…. Damm. :(

great now they won't let you have eating utensils on flights.

What the hell. How can this happen post 9/11? How did a metal spoon get past security?

metal spoon? is non-plastic cutlery allowed on flights?🤔

Will you report on Antifa targeting police in Atlanta or keep your minimal audience ignorant?

It’s impossible to open the emergency door during flight but stabbing someone with a spoon is definitely not cool

Well there you go. No more food,water, toilet paper or movies on any airplanes ever again. Thanks Boston buddy boy.

How very boston of him.

WTF is wrong w/people?

Was that a white guy?

What is going on to much hate ppl SMH

Chicken Noodle News...lmao

Jesus Christ

This world seems to be getting more violent by the minute!😒

We're going to have to take off our spoons in the security line now.

Man wth really going on out here🤦🏾‍♂️

Tell us the description of the offender like a real journalist would.

Wtf is going on with flights these days. Is it always budget airlines?

Despicable act.

Soon we won’t have plastic silverware again

I don’t know when people became such barbarians on planes but it’s disgusting, maybe we should start having people take a psych evaluation before they can fly or something

Jesus christ.

no more metal utensils on flights

Evidence 🌚

Give the flight attendants tasers.

What the f*CK is going on with people!!

For the love of God we have lost our fucking minds.

Haha. That's awesome

Post covid!
