An American Airlines flight bound to Washington DC was forced to make an emergency landing in Kansas after one of the flight attendants was forced to hit an unruly passenger with a coffee pot.

The American Airlines flight AA1775 had departed Los Angeles but was forced to divert to Kansas City’s MCI Airport due to the unruly passenger, where he was taken off the flight.
