Available accounts state that Blair allegedly punched one flight attendant and bit another during the incident. The assaults remain allegations reported by the outlets and have not been independently established in the material provided.
According to the reported information, Blair also allegedly attempted to open an aircraft door. This behavior, too, is described as an allegation in the published accounts.
The Guardian, citing officials from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, reports that Delta Flight 938 had arrived from Los Angeles and was stopped at the gate when authorities intervened.
The same officials, according to The Guardian, had responded to a call about a physically aggressive passenger aboard Delta Flight 938.
The account provided by Blair’s representative differs in its explanation of the causes: according to information given to The Hollywood Reporter, the incident was reportedly caused by a medical emergency. This statement does not independently establish the origin of the behavior at issue.
The Guardian places the arrest on a Sunday, but the available information does not allow the calendar date of the incident to be established with certainty.
The material provided contains no details about any charges, the formal recording of the arrest or a judicial outcome. The allegations concerning the assaults and the attempt to open the door therefore remain within the scope of the account reported by the sources.
