FBI: Man urinated on floor of San Francisco-Charlotte American Airlines flight
Charlotte Observer ^ | 4/25/2016

Posted on 04/26/2016 9:23:45 AM PDT by Gamecock

About an hour into a red-eye American Airlines flight from San Francisco to Charlotte on Saturday, a passenger pulled his pants down, arched his back, and urinated on the floor of the airplane, according to an affidavit filed by the FBI Sunday.

Jordan Gardner, of Ludlow, Ky., was met by Charlotte-Mecklenburg police after the plane landed at 7:45 a.m. Sunday. He is being detained at Mecklenburg County Jail pending a hearing Thursday. He faces a criminal complaint of destruction of aircraft, according to court documents.

The passenger sitting next to Gardner summoned a flight attendant, who saw Gardner pulling up his pants, according to the report. The flight attendant sent him to the bathroom.

But after about 15 minutes, Gardner had not left the bathroom. When the flight attendant opened the door, she found him lying on the floor of the bathroom.

The flight attendant tried to clean the urine with club soda, but it still smelled when the plane landed at Charlotte Douglas.

Gardner, 28, told CMPD he had “only” had two double shots of vodka at the San Francisco Airport before the flight. Police reported they could still smell alcohol on his breath 11 hours after the flight took off.

Gardner told them the smell “may have been caused by the gum he was chewing,” according to the report.

The FBI said Gardner has a multistate criminal history, with charges and arrests for things such as battery, trespassing, auto theft, passing bad checks, being under the influence and vandalism.

Maybe he was confused about which bathrooms he could or couldn’t use? You know, a federal issue.

San Francisco values, no doubt.

Knew it had to have been a white guy. Call the PC police but you can usually tell the race by the crime and circumstances.

The holes in his ears are an indication of the holes in his head. The stupid is strong on this one.

The article didn’t say whether he lifted his leg.

A sound clip from Floyd's Dark Side came to mind ... "I don't know I was really drunk at the time" ... as what this guy probably told the cops as he exited the plane.

Just the regular kind would be fine. No dander allergens are at issue. :-)

He learned public peeing during his stay in SF. They would have applauded him.

Used to fly to vegas late night sometimes in my younger days for gambling weekends.

Get about 6 of us to fly from Midway straight there, and the plane would often be full of drunks who were starting their weekend benders (like myself).

You could smoke on the plane, and even bring your own bottle of liquor if you wanted, we’d play cards on the way there, and just have a good time.

I recall once, a guy near the bathroom laying on the floor passed out... he had sh*t himself, and we were just walking over him.

Stewardesses (are they called that anymore?) just put a blanket over him.

I can’t imagine that sort of debauchery going on in a plane anymore.

Was a different era.

I’ll give the gentleman 4 points for execution, and 3 style points. Well done Sir, we will see you in the semi-finals!

Have to admit there’s been many many times when I’ve wanted to jump on top of the board room table, drop trou, bend over, slowly spin around while whistling Dixie.

The medication is working, so far. I think.

Give the guy a break, he just identified as a dog and peed wherever he got the urge.

I am not accustomed to flying on planes that have a bathroom big enough to lay down in, much less stand up in.

"He faces a criminal complaint of destruction of aircraft,..."

What did this guy drink, Alien Blood?

Was his father in a Red Chinese prison, too?

...

Back in the good old days, such people took the bus. These days airliners are the bus.

Yup! Airlines oscillate in quality. American used to be a good airline. Not any more. At this time, it prolly improved AA’s ambience.

Charges will be reduced from destruction of aircraft to soiling of aircraft deck.
