A 18-year NYPD veteran arrested a 22 year-old man on a flight back from Puerto Rico. The 22 year-old identified as Antonio Ynoa, allegedly punched four times a female flight attendant in the face. Ynoa seems to have started the fight after the attendant refused to bring him more soda to mix with the duty-free bottle of rum he had brought with him in the plane.

Two mothers and their babies were seating next to the young man. “The babies were crying, I could see the fear in the passengers’ faces,” said policeman Anibal Mercado, from the 44th Precinct.
