High with ‘10 edibles’ man tries to open Dallas bound American Airlines' door mid-air

A New Jersey man, Eric Nicholas Gapco, 26, was arrested after attempting to open an American Airlines plane door and propositioning a flight attendant for sex following the consumption of 10 marijuana edibles.

He is booked under federal charges, including shouting, singing, vaping, and harassing passengers. He faces charges of interference with a flight crew and attempted damage to an aircraft under the United States’ special aircraft jurisdiction.

Gapco’s extreme high caused a huge disruption on American Airlines flight 2101 from Seattle to Dallas, forcing an emergency landing in Utah. He was arrested at Salt Lake City International Airport, where he broke a glass door too while drooling.

The flight took off on July 18, but Gapco’s erratic behaviour began shortly after departure. Despite taking the drugs before the flight, Gapco claimed he was unaware of the THC content in each edible. He refused to stay seated, vaped, propositioned a flight attendant for sex, and even removed his clothes.

Witnesses reported that Gapco offered a fellow passenger a bag of unidentified pills and shouted, “I’m sane!” as he was escorted off the plane. Passengers restrained him and assisted flight attendants in removing him from the aircraft. As he was led down the aisle, he was singing, “You say ‘po-tay-to,’ I say ‘po-tah-to.’”
