BATON ROUGE (WAFB) -
Officials at the Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport have identified the man who locked himself in a cockpit Wednesday afternoon.
He's identified as Andrew Alessi. Officials have
confirmed he was a ticketed passenger.
Officials said Alessi was a ticketed
passenger for American Eagle Flight 2795 to Dallas/Fort Worth. They say
he pushed past a gate agent around 11:30 a.m. and ran down the jetway on
to the plane.
They said when he got onto the empty plane he
ignored the commands of an agent cleaning it and went into the cockpit,
locking the door behind him.
Investigators reported Metro Airport police
and the Baton Rouge Police Department tried to negotiate with the man,
but he refused.
Power and oxygen were cut externally and the man surrendered to police just before 3 p.m.
The airport remained open during the ordeal.
BRPD, Metro Airport police and the FBI are investigating.
