SEATTLE >> An official says a flight was diverted to the Seattle area after a man tried to kiss a sleeping girl next to him on the airplane.
Seattle-Tacoma International Airport spokesman Perry Cooper said Tuesday that Port of Seattle police arrested the 23-year-old California man for investigation of fourth-degree assault.
Cooper says the man attempted to kiss a 16-year-old girl who was sleeping next to him. The pilot was notified and reported it to police.
The Alaska Airlines flight was heading to Anchorage, Alaska, from Portland, Oregon. The girl remained on the plane when it later departed for Anchorage.
Cooper says the man was cooperative when he was arrested. He is expected to be booked into King County Jail.
Maybe he was kissing her goodnight.
One pervert to another?

Make like the good Muslims: Separate compartments for men and women and such things can not happen between normal people , unless between LGBT’s.
Either a pervert or drank too much and will be paying its consequences.

agree…air travel is really getting weird
Some adults need to be accompanied by an adult.
or put on the no fly list
Soon there will be a No Fly Perv List.
What is wrong with these freak fliers now days, cannot they just go to a bar?
They did beforehand. That’s why they get in trouble.
Sitting between two fat people is almost as bad!
Sadly, this is not an isolated “perv”. Something about enclosed spaces like a plane or train, especially planes, triggers this kind of obnoxious behavior from a certain type of man. Add alcohol, and it’s even worse. Some of the men may not try to touch you, but they won’t stop talking to you, hoping to get lucky. Solo female travelers know what I’m talking about. We breathe an obvious sigh of relief when we are seated next to a woman. Good luck trying to get the airline to do anything. They will tell you it’s a police matter and to contact your local PD.
that how to report it. hang these misfits!
Keep a pen or pencil handy and stab them at the tender spot! This old buck dislike giving violent advise but when it comes to perverts hit or stab them where it hurts the most!
Like kicking in the nuts?
and SCREAM at the top of your lungs.
Another person who can’t control their urges and gives in to temptation. I bet he got away with it a lot of times before with probably worse offenses.
Doesn’t happen to ugly girls.
Innocent until proven guilty – PLEASE! How did the sleeping girl know the man was attempting to kiss her. Remember, the article did not mention that he kissed her. Men and women (could happen to women too)be careful on the airplane, because one false move in the tight space, and you could be accused of doing something, you did not do. Single travelers are extremely vulnerable to false allegations because they have no witnesses to back their side of the story.
What I’m thinking too. Could be the girl dreaming. Be cautious sitting next to a sleepy girl.
More likely a flight attendant caught him trying to molest the teen girl. Flight attendants will also know they weren’t traveling together.
We almost sit on each other’s lap anyway, those tiny seats.
