"Delta Passenger Arrested for Injuring Flight Attendant with Sharp Object"

A Delta Airlines passenger, Nelson Montgomery, was arrested on battery charges after allegedly injuring a flight attendant with a "sharp object" on a flight from Atlanta to New Orleans. Montgomery struck the flight attendant, causing superficial lacerations, before injuring himself. He was treated for non-life threatening injuries and booked into jail on charges of aggravated battery, disturbing the peace, and simple battery. Passengers subdued Montgomery until deputies arrived, and Delta confirmed their zero tolerance for unruly behavior. It is unclear if Montgomery has legal representation or the potential consequences he may face.
