Florida man calls American Airlines passengers 'blue-eyed white devils,' threatens to 'take this plane down'
[FoxNews] Shail Patel, 29, was arrested on two counts of battery and one count of disorderly intoxication.
Moslem, Hindu/other, illegal alien? In other words: Page1: WoT or Page 3: Non-WoT and Lurid Crimes? How long has Mr. Patel been a Florida Man?
A Florida man on an American Airlines flight was put in a headlock, removed from the aircraft and arrested after he called fellow passengers "blue-eyed white devils" and threatened to "take this plane down with all you motherf---ers on it."

Shail Patel, 29, was drunk when he boarded the flight from Tampa to Philadelphia on Tuesday and began "antagonizing passengers, calling flight attendants names, threatening passengers and aggressively moving through the aircraft," court documents show, according to WFLA.

The report stated he was acting hostile after he boarded and "began acting erratically, yelling and cursing at the passengers."

Patel called passengers "blue-eyed white devils" and threatened to "take this plane down with all you motherf------ on it," according to court documents. He is also accused of slapping a passenger on the hand and face and spitting on them.

Video footage of the incident showed Patel yelling an antisemitic slur at a flight attendant before he was put in a headlock by a fellow passenger and removed from the aircraft.

"I'm trying to get to my home country and you people made it harder for me to get to my home country," he was heard yelling at one point in the video.

A flight attendant used the aircraft's public address system to ask if any off-duty police officers were on board who could help restrain Patel. Police said six off-duty law enforcement officers stepped in and took him off the plane.

"Prior to departure of American Airlines flight 2506 with service from Tampa (TPA) to Philadelphia (PHL), law enforcement was requested to the aircraft due to a disturbance in the cabin involving a disruptive customer," American Airlines said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "We thank our team for their professionalism and apologize to our customers for the inconvenience."

The flight had a 30-minute delay because of the incident.

Patel was arrested on two counts of battery and one count of disorderly intoxication. He is being held at the Hillsborough County Jail on a $2,150 bond.

Update at 12:15 p.m. ET: The NY Post has video. He sounds plain vanilla, educated American to me.
Click Orlando adds that he’s a self-employed IT worker living in Tampa.
URMI gets factual: Mr. Patel is 6’0” and 230 lb, and:
Shail Patel was born on 7 April 1994 in Florida, United States, of Indian heritage. His parents moved to the United States in the early 1980s and settled in Tampa, where Shell was raised.

Records show Patel currently lives in Tampa with his family. However, there is limited information about his family background. Despite efforts, his social media profiles could not be found on platforms like Facebook or Instagram.

And finally, WTSP:
Detectives spoke with Patel's father who told them his son was taking medication and drinking at the bar before the flight. He "stated Patel thought he overheard a passenger make racial remarks which caused him to become upset and yell," the arrest report says.

PREDICTIONS
Being non-White, he'll be protected under DEF and WOKE agendas which the media will kick in to cover any criminal & bad behavior.

Being Non-White he won't be charged with Racial Slurs and Racial Threats.As its the White Devils that caused it.

He'll be processed & released on signature bond.

The Blame will be placed on the Airline for allowing him to be (DWF) Drunk While Flying. Although demanding a Breath test would violate his rights and called racist.

He'll get free 1st class seating next go around and might be hired to do Biden Campaign tours.

#2  This is why the people on the plane need to make sure that no trial is needed before landing.
