JetBlue Flight Crew Assaults 74-Year-Old Grandma Over Teacup, Leaving Her with Black Eye

Angela Siddell, a 74-year-old grandmother, claims she was assaulted by JetBlue flight crew after a dispute over disposing of her teacup and spoon during a flight from JFK Airport to Costa Rica. The situation escalated when she was accused of throwing the cup in the galley, leading to a physical altercation that left her with a black eye and shoulder injuries. The flight was diverted to Orlando, where she and her travel partner were removed from the plane, and Siddell is now seeking unspecified damages in a lawsuit against the airline.
