​Police: Drunken Delta passenger assaults staff at LAX

LOS ANGELES -- Authorities allege a drunken Delta Air Lines passenger assaulted airline staff and police at Los Angeles International Airport early Thursday before she was arrested.

City News Service reports 32-year-old Lisa Piasecki of Irwin, North Carolina, was held at Terminal 6 by three flight crew members, who told officers she assaulted airline personnel.

Airport police say Piasecki had gotten off an arriving flight and was uncooperative and combative, and she was dragged away "kicking and screaming."

Investigators say she was intoxicated and also assaulted an officer.

Piasecki was taken to a hospital for treatment and was arrested around 2 a.m. Thursday on suspicion of battery on a police officer and public drunkenness.
