## Resource

A chaotic American Airlines flight from Dallas to Newark forced an emergency stop in Baltimore after a 67-year-old passenger, Arthur Lundeen, allegedly assaulted another passenger and hurled racist and homophobic slurs at crew. After de-escalation efforts failed, two passengers helped restrain him with duct tape and zip ties — a shocking moment where travelers became impromptu security. Lundeen was arrested upon landing, and the airline praised its crew and calm passengers for prioritizing safety amid the crisis.
