SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A Ukrainian truck driver accused of screaming in Russian that a plane wing had caught fire before tussling with passengers aboard a 2012 flight is set to serve two years’ probation and pay thousands of dollars in damages under a federal judge’s order.
U.S. District Judge Robert Shelby on Wednesday sentenced Anatoliy Baranovich, 47, of Portland, Oregon, to pay $57,000 to Delta Air Lines Inc. for damaging a plane door when he tried to yank it open on the flight from Boston to Salt Lake City.
