Selma Blair Hospitalized, Taken Into Custody After Violent Mid-Air ‘Medical Emergency’

Selma Blair, the actress known for her roles in films such as "Legally Blonde" and "Stigmata," is currently under investigation by the FBI following a violent incident aboard a flight from Los Angeles to New York City. The incident occurred on Sunday night when Blair, who was reportedly experiencing a medical emergency, allegedly injured two flight attendants and attempted to open an aircraft door mid-flight.

Upon landing, Blair received immediate medical attention at JFK Airport and is currently in stable condition, according to her publicist.

The New York Port Authority Police Department took Blair into custody following the incident, which was reported by TMZ. Delta Airlines, which operates the affected flight, stated that they have a zero-tolerance policy for unruly or unlawful behavior, emphasizing that the safety of their customers and crew is their top priority.

One of the injured flight attendants was also hospitalized. Delta Airlines has not yet released the charges against Blair, and the FBI is responsible for investigating all assaults aboard aircraft. The FBI confirmed that they were informed of the potential assault by the Port Authority Police Department and do not comment on ongoing investigations.

Blair, who was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in 2018, has a history of disruptive behavior during flights. In 2016, she was removed from an international flight from Cancun after causing a disturbance mid-air. At that time, she admitted to mixing alcohol with medication, leading to a blackout and causing her to say and do things she deeply regrets. She expressed remorse, apologizing to passengers and crew members, and thanked those who helped her in the aftermath, acknowledging her flaws and mistakes.

TMZ was the first to report the news about Blair's incident aboard the flight.
