Mexican national made knife from pens, tried stabbing passenger in the brain on Vegas-bound flight, DOJ says

A Mexican national, Julio Alvarez Lopez, who holds lawful permanent resident status in the United States, admitted to attempting to stab a fellow passenger on a flight from Seattle to Las Vegas. According to federal prosecutors, Lopez constructed a makeshift knife using three pens tied together with hairbands before the attack. The incident occurred approximately 30 minutes before the plane was set to land, when Lopez left his seat, approached the restroom, and then returned to violently attack a passenger seated across the aisle. Witnesses reported that blood was everywhere during the altercation, and the victim’s wife intervened to protect her husband and their young son, sustaining injuries herself. Lopez reportedly yelled 'I'll only talk to the FBI' during the chaos. Flight attendants and other passengers eventually restrained Lopez, and he was taken into custody upon landing in Las Vegas. Lopez later pleaded guilty to one count of assault with a dangerous weapon related to the January 24, 2024, attack.
