US actress Selma Blair arrested after alleged flight altercation

US actress Selma Blair was arrested on Monday following an alleged altercation on a Delta Air Lines flight from Los Angeles to New York City, authorities confirmed. The incident, which left two cabin crew members injured, occurred after the 54-year-old actress, known for her roles in "Legally Blonde" and "Cruel Intentions," was reportedly involved in a physical altercation with a fellow passenger.

Blair was detained at John F Kennedy Airport following the landing of the Delta flight, which had departed late Sunday. She was taken to a local hospital for evaluation alongside one of the injured cabin crew members. Her representative stated that Selma experienced a medical emergency, which prompted the alleged conduct by the passenger.

The actress's representative added that Selma received immediate medical attention and is currently in stable condition. The FBI is investigating the incident, but has not yet commented on the matter. Delta Airlines, for its part, issued a statement expressing zero tolerance for unruly or unlawful behavior, emphasizing that the safety of its customers and crew remains its top priority.
