Flight Attendant Meltdown At DFW

As her jetliner rolled down the runway at Dallas-Fort Worth today, an American Airlines flight attendant took to the intercom to scream that the plane was going to crash. Passengers found that upsetting.

Chicago-bound Flight 2332 had departed the gate at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport this morning and was preparing for takeoff when, according to the law enforcement officer, a female flight attendant began talking on the plane's public address system about mechanical problems. She also began "ranting" about 9/11. Another flight attendant tried to calm others on board, as the woman continued to rant about the airline's bankruptcy. Some passengers helped to restrain the flight attendant. Two other crew members were reportedly injured in the altercation.

The plane returned to the gate where the flight attendant was removed by state troopers and taken to a hospital. The incident made national news almost immediately when it was tweeted by dozens of passengers.
