Hazards at work, 23

A woman is accused of scuffling with flight attendants and passengers on a San Francisco-bound flight from Boston on Sunday - threatening to open a cabin door in mid-flight, authorities said.

The woman told flight attendants, "I'm calling 911 because the plane is being hijacked," according to an FBI affidavit.

The 28-year-old woman also said, "I'm getting off the aircraft" and threatened to open the cabin door while the plane was airborne, according to the affidavit.

After taking a passenger's seat and trying to take her own dog in a carrier to the restroom, she fought with passengers and flight attendants and spat at them, authorities said. She was restrained with plastic ties.
