Selma Blair has been arrested after allegedly punching one flight attendant and biting another during a Delta flight to New York.
According to TMZ, the altercation between Selma and the crew occurred as the 54-year-old actress travelled to John F. Kennedy International Airport on Sunday (11.10.26).
The New York Port Authority said that two flight attendants were injured in the row, with one taken to hospital to be treated.
Selma was also taken to the hospital, TMZ said, for an evaluation, after being arrested for her alleged actions on the flight.
The outlet also reported that the FBI is investigating the event.
A spokesperson for Selma said in a statement to People: “Selma experienced a medical emergency that led to the alleged conduct. Upon landing, she received immediate medical attention and is currently in stable condition.”
Meanwhile, Delta added: “Delta has zero tolerance for unruly or unlawful behaviour as the safety of our customers and crew always comes first.”
The airline also confirmed that law enforcement met the plane upon its arrival in New York, with emergency responders asking for more medial personnel to meet the two attendants and a passenger, presumed to be Selma, at the gate.
In audio obtained by People, a responder could be heard on dispatch audio saying: “From the info I’ve got, sounds like there were two - yeah, one flight attendant and one passenger that sustained some minor injuries, a bloody nose as well as some bite marks as well. “So I don’t think when need an ambulance or anything like that, but we [could get] some medical personnel at the gate to look at their injuries.”
The responder then added: “And then one additional add on, it sounds like the disruptive passenger also bashed her head on the bulkhead or something like that.”
Selma had been due to attend the 90s Con in Hartford, which is running from Friday (18.10.26) to next Sunday, although it’s unclear whether or not the appearance will go ahead as scheduled.
It’s not the first time that Selma, who suffers from chronic autoimmune disease MS, has caused havoc on a plane.
Back in 2016, she was removed from a plane that landed in Los Angeles from Cancun, and said at the time: “I made a big mistake yesterday.
“After a lovely trip with my son and his Dad, I mixed alcohol with medication, and that caused me to black out and led me to say and do things that I deeply regret.”
