'The Kid Has a Drinking Problem'

Some punk kid with problems smuggles a bottle of vodka onto a trans-Atlantic flight.

What could possibly go wrong?
A 21-year-old Drexel University student was arrested at Kennedy Airport after going berserk aboard a British Airways flight in which he was lewd and spat on flight attendants and broke a jump seat.

Taylor Kircher guzzled an entire bottle of vodka he spirited onto Flight 115 from London last Thursday, authorities said.

The booze kicked in about two hours into the transatlantic flight when a woman passenger reported Kircher was masturbating through his clothing, according to a complaint filed in Brooklyn Federal Court.

"He stated that he was unable to stop," Federal Air Marshal Basilios Argyros said in the complaint.
He went on to spit on people and threatened to blow up the plane. Then was released on $75K bail.

What a nice kid.

His lawyer had the understatement of the year.
"The kid has a drinking problem, and we're trying to get him the help he needs," defense lawyer Brian Waller said.
