Francisco Severo Torres, 33, of Leominster, has been charged by the FBI with one count of interference and attempted interference with flight crew members and attendants using a dangerous weapon.
Torres was arrested Sunday evening at Boston Logan International Airport following the flight from Los Angeles.
A flight attendant found that the door’s locking handle had been moved out of the fully locked position — about a quarter of the way toward the unlocked position — and that the emergency slide arming lever had been moved to the “disarmed” position. The flight attendant reported this to the captain and flight crew after securing the door and emergency slide.
