Women: Man groped us on flight
- Share via
The FBI arrested a New Jersey man for allegedly groping women’s breasts as they slept during a cross-county flight to John Wayne Airport on Friday.
Two women who were aboard Continental Airlines flight 787, from Newark, said James Dalton Bratcher, 35, grabbed their right breast, according to an affidavit.
The affidavit notes that one woman said he groped her twice, and then complained to flight attendants about it. The second woman said she overheard the complaint and informed an attendant that she too had been groped.
Bratcher is awaiting a preliminary hearing set for March 22.
He is being held in federal custody without bail, according to Laura Eimiller, an FBI media representative.
