A woman flying from Tampa, Florida to Atlanta was detained by the FBI after the plane she has been traveling on landed in the Georgia capital two days before Christmas, all because she allegedly caused a “ mid-air disturbance” on board.
According to media reports, Patricia Cornwall was detained from the Atlanta PD and later transferred over to the FBI for investigation after landing at Hartsfield-Jackson Altlanta ga International Airport upon December 23 on a Delta Airlines flight. Cornwall came under police suspicion after allegedly striking another passenger with a punch in an apparent flap over wearing masks during the flight.

Cornwall’ s reported actions appear to have been at least partially captured on video, too. A public social media post shows a woman purported to be Cornwall standing in an aisle and cursing at a seated male passenger, yelling at him multiple times to put on his mask. After some length of argument, the woman strikes the seated older man in the face with her hand, as flight crew members attempt to detain her.

Whoa!!!
In a public statement released on Christmas Day, Atl PD officials confirmed that they were investigating a mid-air disturbance on that particular flight from Tampa, telling the media:
“ When the aircraft arrived at the gate, officers were able to meet with exiting passengers who advised that the suspect, Ms. Patricia Cornwall had caused a disturbance while in the air. This disruption [led] to the particular injury of fellow passengers plus Delta employees. Based on typically the statements gathered and visible evidence, officers detained Ms. Cornwall in addition to contacted the on-call FBI agent. ”
It is unclear if this traveler has been charged with anything, but mid-air violence is a major security issue that this feds take very seriously. Last month, U. S. Attorney General Merrick Garland ordered state attorneys general to prioritize prosecuting the cases of people who “ endanger the safety of passengers, flight crews, and flight attendants. ” Not great timing for the lady in the video, it would appear…
