BOSTON - A United Airlines passenger has been arrested after trying to open an emergency exit door during a flight on Sunday from Los Angeles to Boston and then trying to stab a flight attendant in the neck, US prosecutors said on Monday.

A judge ordered the Leominster, Massachusetts resident held without bail following an initial court appearance on Monday. Torres is set to have another hearing on Thursday. A court-appointed lawyer for Torres did not respond to a request for comment. After another flight attendant reported seeing Torres near the door and his suspicions that Torres tampered with it, a colleague confronted the man, who asked if any cameras recorded him doing so, prosecutors said. Torres soon after tried to stab of the flight attendants with a broken metal spoon, hitting him on the neck area three times before Torres was tackled, prosecutors said.
