An Alaska Airlines flight from JFK airport to Seattle was forced to make an emergency landing on Monday after a passenger spouting gibberish tried to open an emergency exit mid-flight. Jordan Fragiacomo, 28, allegedly tried to open a rear exit door after declaring that he wanted to "get off the flight" halfway through the transcontinental trip. Even worse, he allegedly tried to steal drinks from his fellow passengers.

“We did receive reports that this passenger attempted to access a door at the rear of the aircraft,” airline spokesperson Halley Knigge told CBS's Seattle affiliate. “The passenger was unsuccessful as it is physically impossible to open an aircraft door while the aircraft is pressurized and inflight.”

One witness said it was "obvious [Fragiacomo] was under the influence of something," and a woman sitting next to him told Seattle's KIRO 7 that he was behaving "oddly" from the moment he boarded.

"He kept stopping to go into his bag and then I watched him take a pill out of his bag," seat-mate Shoshana Godwin said. According to Godwin, Fragiacomo was quiet and possibly sleeping until flight attendants came around with beverage service. At this point, she claims Fragiacomo "said he needed to cancel his flight and get off the plane and just was kind of speaking a little gibberish."

Fragiacomo, whose Facebook profile identifies him as a self-employed barber and former go-go dancer, allegedly tried to kiss a flight attendant before charging the back emergency exit. Flight crew restrained him, but not before he planted a kiss on another flight attendant.

"If you continue to restrain me, there’s going to be problems," Fragiacomo, who has a Batman tattoo on his chest, reportedly said.

There were no additional problems. The pilot of the Boeing 737 made an emergency landing at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, after an announcement that the plane would be "dropping off one of our passengers early,” and that there would be someone at the gate to “greet this customer, [who was] having a difficult time working and playing well with others.”

Fragiacomo was escorted off the plane by airport police and taken to an area hospital for evaluation. The flight continued on to Seattle. Shoshana Godwin presumably enjoyed a blissfully empty seat next to her for the duration of her flight.

Sources tell the NY Post that Fragiacomo had admitted that he took the date-rape drug GHB several hours before the flight, which departed at 7:40 a.m. from JFK. He also allegedly admitted to taking "unknown amounts" of cocaine and Xanax. As one does.



It's unclear if he will be charged or why exactly his Batman tattoo is making us so sad.
