Kansas man arrested for dragging American Airlines flight attendant up the aisle mid-air, faces up to 20 years in jail
A 24-year-old man from Kansas has been arrested for assaulting an American Airlines flight attendant on board, reports quoting prosecutors have said. According to a report by The New York Post, the man, identified as Julius Jordan Priester assaulted the flight attendant after ripping off his shirt. He allegedly threw the employee to the ground and dragged them up the aisle, as per the report quoting prosecutors. Priester, a 24-year-old resident of Wichita, boarded the American Airlines flight from Bradley International Airport in Hartford, Connecticut. The Department of Justice said he was arrested and charged for assaulting the cabin crew member. The incident happened at around 10 pm when the Chicago-bound flight was mid-air, The Post reported, resulting in chaos. 'Thirty minutes to an hour into the flight, Priester stood up, began to take off his shirt, then ran to the back of the plane yelling 'Help me,'' United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut David Sullivan was quoted as saying. Priester then grabbed the victim who was seated, forcefully bringing them to the ground. 'He then grabbed a flight attendant ('the victim'), who was seated, shouted, 'You're coming with me,' and forcefully brought the victim to the ground,' Sullivan said. The attacker tried to drag the cabin crew member up the aisle but was stopped by passengers who rushed to save the employee. Sullivan's office further added that Priester continued to shout incoherent comments even after passengers helped him get seated. American Airlines issued a statement regarding the matter, lauding its cabin crew members for their assistance. 'We do not tolerate violence, and we thank our team members for their professionalism and our customers for their assistance,' it said. However, the incident forced the pilot to divert the plane back to Bradley after the captain declared an emergency. Following the safe touchdown of the flight, Connecticut State Police arrived onboard to arrest Priester, who was then taken to a hospital for evaluation. Prosecutors have also revealed that Priester already has a criminal history in Kansas, with charges including that of an aggravated assault. He is currently in police custody and will be produced at the court soon. Priester can face imprisonment for up to 20 years with charges of interfering with flight crew members and attendants. The condition of the affected flight attendant has not been revealed.

Thomas Tuchel addresses Jude Bellingham injury amid warning for England stars
Thomas Tuchel believes Jude Bellingham may have been playing through his persistent shoulder injury for 'way too long'. Bellingham was named in Tuchel's England squad on Friday ahead of matches against Andorra and Senegal early next month. The midfielder is then expected to compete at the Club World Cup with Real Madrid before undergoing surgery on the injury, which was caused in 2023 by a shoulder dislocation and has seen him wear a strapping under his shirt for more than a year. Bellingham has been a key player for Real Madrid this season, despite their failure to win the Liga title, registering 28 goal contributions in 51 matches in all competitions for Los Blancos. Asked whether Bellingham was always planning to join up with the squad, Tuchel said: 'He always wants to come. They all want to come. 'I want to be very clear about this: not one single player has told me, 'Ah, can I just come for the first match, because I have the Club World Cup?' or 'Can I be left out completely because I've played so much?'. Not one. Everyone I told was: 'No, no, no, I come. I want to come. It's an honour to come. 'Jude always wants to come. He has played for many months — way too long, maybe — with this issue. He plays with this huge shoulder strap under his shirt. 'I understand that he will go to the Club World Cup, and then at some point have surgery. From a purely medical point, it [surgery] should be yesterday. They keep delaying, because of the importance of Jude.' Asked if it would be unwise, just a year out from the World Cup in North America, for players to be pulling out of squads they do not need to miss, Tuchel curtly agreed: 'Very unwise.' Meanwhile, Phil Foden asked to discuss the possibility of a break with England's medical staff, before Tuchel ultimately made the decision to leave him out of his June squad. Tuchel said he had failed to 'translate' his form in training into games. Foden has struggled for form for Manchester City this season and has confirmed struggles in his private life have played their part. 'No, no,' Tuchel said when asked whether Foden had asked for a rest and to be left out of the squad. I loved him in training; he was fantastic, but he could not translate it into the matches Thomas Tuchel on Phil Foden 'It is very important. He said: 'I said that I wanted to speak to the club and speak to the FA and to the coaches about what they think is best for me, and give them the full picture'. 'With Phil, it is a mix between the performances since camp and his — not injury, but — discomfort with his ankle. He keeps complaining that it keeps holding him back.' Tuchel added: 'Let's be honest, even before the first camp [in March], he was not in his best shape. He had not the impact at Man City, he had not the freedom in his game that he wishes for. 'We still picked him. I loved him as a person in camp. I was very positively surprised how he interacted and how he was. So we felt that he was very comfortable in camp and he expressed himself. He was open, he was funny. I loved him in training; he was fantastic. But even in the first camp, he could not translate it, he could not transport it into the matches. 'It got a bit worse then, after that even, in the club. It seems to be stuck, it seems to be not falling into place for him. So he has not minutes. He is not involved in goals, chances. And considering all these points, together with the fact that he is still complaining about his ankle, I said I will look at other players. 'He knows that I love him, but it is the moment maybe that it helps you now to take a breath and get fully fit for the Club World Cup.'
