‘I Thought It Was A Terrorist': KBLX Radio Host Passenger on Flight Where Man Allegedly Chokes Woman

A Southwest Airlines flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco on Sunday night was forced to turn around and make an emergency landing after a passenger allegedly choked the woman in front of him for reclining her seat. KBLX radio host and comedian Mark Curry, who was on the flight, told NBC Bay Area that he was asleep on the flight and woke up to a bunch of commotion. “I thought it was a terrorist so I jumped up. I didn’t know what to do. A guy got into it with a lady and choked her or something,” Curry said Stephanie Chuang reports.
