A Kansas man has been sentenced after assaulting a flight attendant on a flight from Bradley International Airport to Chicago in May 2025.

Julius Priester was sentenced to a year of probation and ordered to pay a $500 fine in a decision from a Bridgeport judge.

Court documents say Priester removed his shirt, grabbed a seated flight attendant, shouted "You're coming with me," and attempted to drag the attendant up the aisle.

Passengers intervened and the flight diverted back to Bradley, where he was arrested.
