Air Marshal Claims Assault by Flight Attendant

A flight attendant is being sued by a former air marshal for injuring the air marshal's knee with her beverage cart. According to the air marshal, on a previous flight, the flight attendant came up to him and another officer and stated that she didn't like air marshals being on her flight and telling them to stay out of her way. As well, during the previous flight, the flight attendant continually rammed her cart into the air marshal's leg with increasing force. On the air marshal's second and last flight with the flight attendant, she rammed her beverage cart into the air marshal's knee so hard that the cart came off the floor. The injury was so bad that the air marshal had to be assisted in existing the plane, had to have surgery done on his knee, and since, had to take a lower paying desk job, being unable to perform his previous duties.
